Klamath Mtns - A Uniquely Beautiful Region

Caribou Lakes Basin - Trinity Alps Wilderness

Caribou Lakes Basin - Trinity Alps Wilderness. This spectacular view of the "Alps" was taken from an 8,000 foot vantage point along the original trail just west of Caribou Mtn. Few people now experience this, choosing instead to take a newer trail that contours around the Caribou Mtn massif.

A near record wet Spring in 2010 which helped hold a heavy winter snowfall much longer than normal. It is mid July and Upper Caribou Lake is mostly still frozen over (Lower Caribou is open).
