A picture does not do justice to this narrow shelf running parallel to, and 500 ft. above, Goddard Creek. Two little waterfalls are barely visible. Flowers, green grass, little streams...I loved it.

A sunny day brings big smiles to a group near Bighorn Lake on the Blackcap Basin Lakes Route.
This view is looking down Goddard Creek toward the Ragged Spur with the Black Divide in the distance.

This view is looking down Goddard Creek toward the Ragged Spur with the Black Divide in the distance.
These are the lakes northwest of Peak 11493. You can make a fairly steep descent among the talus to the smaller lake in the foreground from the trail.
This lake sits at 10,400 ft. about 1/4 mile below the trail. It is well worth a visit!
Blue Canyon Pass is the dip on the left. From there, make a high traverse toward Finger Peak and Finger Col on the right side. After reaching the basin below Finger Peak, the route becomes much easier.
This view is from Reinstein Pass looking north toward Martha Lake, with Mt. Goddard on the right, Mt. McGee in the center and Goddard Canyon running straight ahead on the left side.
Bighorn Lake shines with Ambition Lake barely visible above it. Mt. Goddard is the dark peak over the ridge. Valor Pass is on the ridge directly in front of it, with Mt. Reinstein on the extreme right.
