The
Donoho Lakes region - easily spotted from Kennicott as the tree-filled
'oasis' amongst the grandiose Root and Kennicott Glaciers is a place
with many charms, the first of which may be that it is right in
our backyard!
After we cross the Root Glacier and set foot back onto solid ground, we make our way through the network of lakes, brush, berries, and boulders that characterize this area. Don't be surprised if you spot some waterfowl on the lake, or bears happily munching on the bountiful berry crop. With the enormity of the glaciers, the stately profile of Donoho peak looming overhead, and the tranquility of the water, we're sure that you'll see how lucky we feel to have this spellbinding wilderness experience nearby. |
