DAY THREE
    Today, we climb to the high country. Although, steep, we enjoy dazzling views with each upward step. Passing the grassy shores of Evelyn Lake, we wonder if we have been transported to the Irish countryside. We arrive at Vogelsang Lake and eat a scrumptious dinner over 10,000 feet high!
