Up on moraine ridge, straight north of Lake Vernon
Tent site in Jack Main Canyon
July flow of cascades coming out of Lake Vernon.
There are many of these pools along Falls Creek in Jack Main Canyon.
Lake 5683, beautiful, but better camping a short distance away at Lake 5810.
Spectacular Lake 5774. From here it does not look difficult to climb up the canyon towards Edith Lake, but with polished granite even an 8 foot cliff can stop non-rock climbers and avoiding cliffs leads to thick, deep brush.
Lake 5810. A beautiful rock-bound lake that has great camping and relatively warm water for swimming.
