Maple pass loop `19

Better geared for a snow hike since Dickerman, this one was a treat to the eyes and mind, not so much for the body. We needed crampons and gaiter for the entirety of the hike. The larches adorned the snowy vistas, like speckled gold on white. The loop around Ann Lake was one of the sketchiest I had been on yet; icy path along a mountain slope that went straight down to the frozen lake.
