Tues 7/19 Red Cloud to Shelly's Lake

[mrsquishy]

I hiked up to the lake, ate lunch, drank a beer, took a nice long nap in the sun and hiked down. You probably wouldn't want to wear shorts like I did - the trail goes through salmonberries for most of the time until you first cross the creek up high. The tread is firm with a few bogs here and there - very hikeable in running shoes or light boots, no need for rubber boots at this time.
