We crossed Glenn Pass and then stormed up the ascent to Forester Pass. Forester pass is just amazing. It’s carved out of the hillside and tops out at 13200 feet. I couldn’t help but scream something triumphant (see video below) when I reached the top.

From there we travelled down another amazing set of switch backs on our way towards Guitar Lakes.
