I hiked to Island and Twin Lakes this week. They are a few miles beyond Wrights Lake in Desolation Wilderness. I went mostly to hike but I thought I could get some photos and maybe some fish. Beautiful alpine areas and a nice place to hike. Given the easy access I would expect it to be a little more over run with people but maybe I need to go back on the weekend for that. I did get some photos but it appeared to me they were in the process of eradicating the fish from the lakes. I saw what appeared to be a government issue net with a few small fish in it. I have seen this in Sierra lakes before and I think they are trying to restore the red legged frog. I saw someone coming down from a nearby lake and they said they caught fish so maybe I will go there next time.

I bought an over under dome and took this shot. Could be useful for fish shots but we'll see.

I love the color of beer. And almost everything else about it.
