Jorinda and Kim will be finishing a backpacking trip in the area Friday the 27th, car-camping at Waterton Springs Campground and then taking the first boat to the trailhead to Crypt Lake at 9:00 a.m. on Saturday. We will return on the 5:30 boat back to Waterton. The pace must allow us to return to the boat on time.
