This is the lowest of the Blue Canyon Lakes.
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 looks over the upper Blue Canyon Basin from near Blue Canyon Pass.

This lake sits at 10,400 ft. about 1/4 mile below the trail. It is well worth a visit!
Unnamed frozen lake and pass above Blue Canyon on Kettle Ridge.
Enjoy the view looking northwest toward Finger Peak from Lake 10401.This is the best of the Blue Canyon lakes in my opinion.
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.
Cathedral Lake and Finger Col glimmer in the evening light.
This is the lowest of the Blue Canyon Lakes.
