Day 4

Marie Lakes to Rosile Lake
39.8 to 50.9 - 11 miles

We camped last night next to a large stream that keep waking me up. I was up at 5:30 again. We spent the morning in camp doing some chores so we left camp at 7:30. Today's hike is all about the lakes Thousand island, ruby, Garnet,  shadow and finally Rosales.

The day started climbing Island pass at 10000 ft and then a 2 miles down hill to lakes. Each lake required us  to climb and then down to the next lake. The hardest climb was our final climb and was the most difficult of the trip. I believe the miles are starting to hit me. The bright side today was we made camp at 5:00 so we made a fire. Jenny camp with us again tonight.  She is a mom of 3 and left her family to take this journey .

We made camp at 5:00 the earliest so far. We found a spot and made a fire. About a hour later Jenny joined us again. We are excited since we are hoping to be at Reds Meadow for Lunch.
