Topo of this week's route from Lower Echo Lake in the bottom right. This was mostly on the PCT/TRT until the eastward bailout section that was on a combination of secondary trails and the TYT.

Parked in the upper Echo Lakes parking after driving out from Mountain View and stopping down at the ranger station to pick up my backcountry permit.  Nice and cool for the 9am start.

The trail followed the lakeshore west, staying a hundred yards or so above the water.  Passed a bunch of dayhikers on this leg.
