Summary: Beautiful route!

Route description:
Green path, protected by tall and big trees, which gradually filled with stones and roots that at times made it difficult to run.
Full of birdsong, and running water from the mountain walls.
Once at the first lake, everything turns into rocks, turning the run in jumps and great inclination to reach the highest point of the route, Melakwa Pass.
Then I found the snow and feared not knowing how to go down, or how to find the trail again. This was the most difficult part- not recognizing where to go (approximately 20 min extra to find the highest point on the left side that led me to Gem Lake).
Afterwards everything was wonderful, with the view of snow lake and downhill. It was a lot of fun.

PS: Immediately after chair peak lake, go to the left and stay at the highest point on the left.
