Bear Lake Backpacking Trip, September 28-29, 2013

2 Scouts and 2 Leaders backpacked from Crabtree Trailhead to Bear Lake in the Emigrant Wilderness.
This is a very nice trail that connects to the Kibbie Lake trail. We passed Camp Lake, which is a very small but beautiful lake. It only took us one and a half hours to return from the lake.
A short but fun trip.
