Description:

Come get lost with me in the endless alpine meadows, high peaks and prestine lakes of the Lost Valley. 

The Plan is to leave Friday in order to get a solid 4 days of exploring and peak bagging in before coming back Monday evening. There are numerous peaks to explore in this area including Haylmore, Lost peak, and Crystal peak. Which have some epic views (see pics belowe)

The path to get there is not exactly well travelled so we will have to do some bushwacking in order to get into the alpine, but after that it should be golden. 

This trip was done wayyy back in 2013 by the VOC and we should be able to roughly follow their trip report to get into the vally. That being said, a lot can change in 5 years so some improvisation may be necessary. There is also a great trip report on clubtread that we can use as a reference.
