Awesome hike up to Cecret Lake near Alta, Utah in the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest.
It was a lovely day, sunny and 30Fs.
The hike was 4.5 miles with a 1,210 ft elevation change. Cecret Lake is 9,875 ft above sea level.
The payoff 😍 love those reflections on the lake!
We were at the lake about noon. I think the ice was retreating some as the day warmed up.
The edge of the lake was still iced over but the sun was high and bright.
It was hard to leave and start back down. Such a lovely day!
A few nice stickers for you 
We were following a mapping phone app which was good because this sign looks disturbing temporary, pretty sketchy.
Here's my hiking party.
I would call the hike moderate but it was step and icy for a stretch immediately below the lake.
One more pretty shot of the lake to close out the post ✌️
