Dad climbing the rocky trail to Hades Pass from ~9,300 ft at the Grandview trailhead to ~10,700 ft.
From Hades Pass it is all downhill into Grandaddy Basin.
We camped at Betsy Lake.
Friday we did a ~ 7 mile loop hike and visited Fish Hatchery, Pine Island, Lilly, and Palisade lakes.

Self-shot on the way back up Hades pass.
On top of Hades Pass. All downhill to the car.
Final thoughts:
It was a great trip. Rain every day, with lots of rain, thunder, and lightning on Friday night. I think everyone caught fish, but the fishing was kind of slow. Other groups we talked to said the same thing about the fishing. I would definitely visit this area again.

I'm glad you had fun, but don't make plans for anymore trips too soon or I may go crazy!
You should've taken a picture of that gross blister on your foot. Nasty.
You call those fish????? Looks more like bait to me!!!!!
