Looking up the Giant Slide Trail
Route: Giant Slide Trail, Sargent Northwest Trail
Trails were snow free and mostly dry (there still is a patch of snow on the east face of Sargent). Giant Slide Trail was rugged (boulders and caves) along the section prior to the Sargent Northwest junction, but neat. Nice sunset above treeline.
