The tent is at the finger on the left, just past the two land bridges dividing the lakes. Each lake is a mile or so long.

I hiked across this and up the far glacier. It was over a mile from the near glacier to the far one.

This is the route up to Gannett Peak. There is an alternate route up a small steep glacier that I didn't like either.

This is the rough part of the Gooseneck Glacier. I negotiated the crevices on the way up. I took the rocks on the way down. I didn't like either route.

The boulders were on top of ice! In some places like this, they slide off. Every minute or so, a rock or two would come tumbling down the ice chute.

I would guess that this wall (on the snow side) is about 40 or 50 feet tall.

Gannett Peak again. I was up to the saddle on the left when I turned around.

Titcomb Lakes -- Home! It looked like it would start lightning, but never did. Until my hike down the next day.
