DescriptionDay hike along the West Fork Foss River trail into the heart of the Alpine Lakes to our destination of Big Heart Lake at 4545 feet. We will stop for lunch at Copper lake which has great flyfishing and swimming. We are rating this a difficult hike because of distance and pace(we plan to trail run the return trip, so participants should be in good physical condition), 14 miles round trip with an elevation gain of ~3000' over several mountain passes. We will leave the church at 7:30am Saturday and return around 7:30pm. Pack a lunch and lots of snacks for endurance, as well as money to stop for dinner on the way home. We will be able to filter water along the way.
