This photo was taken from the south end of Adler Lake on the Bonaparte Plateau. After the massive wildfire that burned the forest over large areas on the Bonaparte Plateau, the trail to Skoatl Lake was closed. In the year following we drove past Windy Lake to the edge of the black forest. We were able to find our way to Skoatl Point, winding around black trees, then lots of windfall by Adler Lake, all the way to Skoatl Point, up the rock, and back. This photo was taken at the edge of the burn. Skoatl Point is a favorite hike and we will be back to do it again (hopefully this year).
