Day 4: Reds Meadow to Purple Lake (approximately 14.8 miles)
The aftermath of a fire close to Reds Meadow. The nearby Reds Meadow Resort has a great little diner serving pancakes and burgers to hungry JMT hikers.
Stunning views of distant granite peaks
A lucky horseshoe I found along the trail. Although I would have loved to take it home with me, I couldn't bring myself to carry it after leaving behind a brand new book and a large bag of food (in an effort to reduce the weight of my pack) at Reds Meadow.
The Sierra mountains fade to blue in the distance
A self-portrait from the trail
Purple Lake reflects the darkening sky; thankfully, it didn't rain!
