SUMMARY:Three Lakes Valley T3
DESCRIPTION:Slow and Steady Hikers\n[https://hikingwithpar.com/2017/07/11/chester-lake-three-lakes-valley/](https://hikingwithpar.com/2017/07/11/chester-lake-three-lakes-valley/) \nFossils\, Lakes\, and Larches\nDistance: 15.5 km\nElevation: 600 meters \nI don’t believe I’ve ever been up here during larch season. I plan to hike to at least the second tarn and maybe carry on into the cirque.\nThe hike isn’t hard but there are some steep parts. The views are spectacular from the meadows before Chester Lake and just keep getting better the higher we go.\nStrong beginners should be fine with this hike. The pace will be Slow and Steady. I don’t want any speed demons along. Also we hike as a group and stop at all junctions. \nThe Slow and Steady waiver ( which I will supply ) and Code of Conduct are in effect. \nThe suggested gas fee per passenger is $25.\nIncluding myself\, I’ll need at least 3 more drivers. \nBring enough to drink and eat and dress for the weather. Key word\, Layers.
