Nick submitted a new Trail Guide for Lake Blanche
[bimg=fleft|350]http://backcountrypost.com/forum/attachments/lake-blanche-hike-1-jpg.13448/[/bimg]Short, strenuous and incredibly beautiful. At just over 3 miles one-way, this hike isn’t very long, but you're probably going to feel it the next day thanks to the more than 2,700-foot climb.
Lake Blanche is perched high above Salt Lake City in a picturesque lake-filled basin, surrounded by towering rocky peaks. Blanche is just one of the three 'Sister Lakes', along with Lillian and Florence to the west. This hike is a great day hike or an even better overnight backpacking trip, especially if you can hit it on a weekday when the crowds are light.
