Description
This spur trail takes you from the Boulder Pass Trail, across the meadows in the bowl to the campsites at the base of the cliffs. As you cross through the meadow, flowers bloom late in the year due to lingering snowpacks. Everywhere you look, rocky summits and their impressive walls stand tall. To the south, Bowman Lake can be seen nestled in the Bowman Valley. All around the cirque, waterfalls crash into the bowl until you arrive at the campsites.
