    Up a small offshoot from the main trail, you'll feel on top of the world looking down upon the Lakes Basin area. The summit is a small area with almost 360 degree views. If you're not feeling up to hiking to the top, there are plenty of views along the main trail that traverses the ridge below the summit.
