Day 3: Red's Meadow to Duck Creek

We hiked from Red's Meadow (7,580', 0 mi) to Deer Creek (9,090', 6.5 mi) and on to Duck Creek (10,150', 12 mi). Despite the fact that Red's Meadow was the lowest elevation we camped at, it was freezing when we woke up, and our tents and packs had ice on them!

The total distance was 12 miles, and we climbed a total of 2,570'.
