Purple Pass, Boulder Creek — Monday, Jul. 4, 2022

Hike to Purple pass was snow free with stunning Lake Chelan views and mountain range all around. Snow started after towards Purple Creek trail and towards Boulder Creek trail, used Caltopo for route finding, had a pair of poles and solid trail running shoes with good traction and felt safe. Things got a bit more difficult with not trail in sight crossing below Camels Butte. Just followed same elevation and jumped hundreds of trees, one at a time. Once I dropped past Lone Mountain found the trail again and progress was easier. From there until bakery trail was uneventful with stunning views.
