Hiking
Just below Fancy Pass, you can take a break with a view at or even descend to Fancy Lake. There are also flat spots to pitch your tent if you want to spend the night here.

Hiking
Those coming from the valley have the opportunity to take a break here. Whether you take the Fancy Pass route depends on your physical condition and the weather. We walked across snowfields in July. That can be exhausting.
