6/30: We really preferred hiking Colden via Marcy dam to lake Arnold, to the summit and then down to lake colden and to avalanche pass. It would have been way more challenging ascending avalanche pass, as it’s way steeper, wet and with slippery rock faces. Beautiful views all throughout the hike, with wet muddy spots on the trail where there is less sun. Flys and mosquitos got bad in the afternoon!!! And so many stairs to enjoy!
