Flattops III

      On the second day, we woke early to and get a head start on the afternoon storms. We climbed the remaining stretch of the valley, over a sketchy waterfall crossing, and up to the top of the Flat top. Once we reached the top, the trees thinned out significantly. Much unlike the lakes, the land became somewhat like tundra. We hiked across the flattops for a bit until we reached Twin Lakes. In the distance we could see Big Marvine Peak and Little Marvine Peaks. We relaxed for several hours that day, and I went for a swim in one of the Twin Lakes. 
     On the third day, we again woke early. We continued to traverse the flat top in the morning. We passed Big Marvine Peak and headed towards to Little Marvine Peaks. We began to descend before we reached them down into another valley. We hiked through this valley all day and passed by many more smaller lakes. By the late afternoon, we had reached the trailhead.
