Looking west. We had great weather, always like having clouds.

Looking down on what I think are Treasure, Gem and Chickenfoot Lakes.

Looking northwest.

Looking down on the 12,835' Mount Starr. Ruby Lake on the left.

Looking over Mount Starr to Red & White Mountain and Red Slate Mountain.

Zoomed in on Red & White Mountain and Red Slate Mountain. Mount Starr's summit is in the foreground.

Looking north.

Me on the summit. Glad I tried this hike a second time. Taking the route we took made it a fairly easy hike.

Starting down after about half an hour on top.

The view as we head down.

We took a different way down passing under instead over these suncups.

Following the ridge back to the saddle.

On the ridge that leads back to Francis Lake.

Looking back at Morgan on the left.

Almost back to Francis Lake.

From here we're back on the trail to Rock Creek Lake.

Map showing the route we used. The hike turned out to be 10.2 miles round trip with a 4,200' gain.
