Enjoy the view looking northwest toward Finger Peak from Lake 10401.This is the best of the Blue Canyon lakes in my opinion.
This is the lowest of the Blue Canyon Lakes.
4th Lake at elevation 10,100. Blue Canyon is exciting only if you venture beyond the official end of the trail. This is not difficult.
This view looks over the upper Blue Canyon Basin from near Blue Canyon Pass.
Unnamed frozen lake and pass above Blue Canyon on Kettle Ridge.
Blue Canyon Pass is the dip on the left. From there, make a high traverse toward Finger Peak and Finger Col on the right side. After reaching the basin below Finger Peak, the route becomes much easier.
This lake sits at 10,400 ft. about 1/4 mile below the trail. It is well worth a visit!
