Leigh and I set out for a quick overnight trip to Baker Lake down in the Bitterroot Mountains south of Hamilton. The weather was perfect and the fall colors were in full display!
Baker Lake
We had a nice campsite right by the lake. Next time we'll have to stay a few nights and hike the route up to Trapper Peak.
Baker Creek
This is the creek meandering it's way between Middle and Baker Lake.
Middle Lake
Middle Lake- Boring name, amazing beauty!
All adventures are better when sharing them with your best friend! It was a great peaceful spot and could've spent the whole day sitting there.
This is above Middle Lake looking back down.
Gem Lake Swirl
This is right below Gem Lake, where there was just a small stream of water flowing that was pushing the fallen larch needles into this cool whirlpool.

Great photos! When are the larches golden? I'm considering a trip there Oct 1st!
