Great day for this route! Started with18ish miles of cruising on nice trails. For the off trail part we glissaded down a bit of snow to chair peak lake and more or less followed the route gpx track to get up to the ridge trail then more or less followed trails down to gem lake.
Carried our own snacks and water and refilled at a few of the plentiful water sources on this route.
We followed Michael Searing’s lead and ran eastbound so we could bike back down to the trailhead (https://strava.app.link/emkm4Rk9OUb). Quite fun on a gravel bike (Emily) and a little more work on a heavy mountain bike (Emett).
