Climbing Buchanan Pass on the west side.
On the way to Gourd Lake.
Lower Coney Lake and the cirque headed by Paiute and Algonquin.
Lower Coney Lake. At this point, climbing 500 feet of loose talus seemed more fun than bashing through more willows.
A nice pond that looks like it's been made recently bigger by debris daming.
Along the south contours between the two lakes, the higher up you go, the better. Rock/grass rather than rock/willows down below.
Mt. Audubon (right), the Coney Lakes basin (center), and the peaks of Wild Basin and the northern IPW (left) from the summit of Paiute.
The view south from Paiute's summit is incomparable.
