Once we got to Dog Lake, we decided it should really be called Pee Lake or Dead Cow Lake. It was not a pretty site. So, with our dissapointment at Dog Lake we decided to go and extra 1.6 miles to Desolation Lake, hoping that the "desolute" would be more lovely than the "dog." So we went from the car, to the dog, to the desolute, then back to the car. Imagine tracing over each part of a large letter Y. Car, Dog, and Desolation are all at points on the Y. Do you understand?
Anyway, to cut to the end of the story. It was a long hike.
Total miles: almost 10. Total time: about 5 hours.
Water consumed: 3.5 liters
Wildlife seen: 1 deer, 3 chipmunks, 2 dogs, misc. birds.
Bug report: Haley=5 bites, James=0
Our legs were really tired, but it was fun. Here are some pictures.

I hiked 10 miles once, down into the grand cannon with friends. I thought I was going to die! I did die on 10 mile hike out! Good Job!
