Chasm Lake
11-9-2013: Amy and I set out for Chasm Lake from the Longs Peak Trailhead. Conditions were mostly excellent, a little windy at times but nothing unexpected or difficult. We didn't quite make it to the lake because the final approach was up a fairly steep rocky area that was basically a frozen waterfall.
