A description of this serious whoopin' great 9 mile hike to Gothic Basin, Del Campo and Foggy Lake (during perfect weather and cloudless skies) from the Washington Trails Association reads; "Rugged and spectacular - yes. Gothic, perhaps, for this stark and mysterious basin harbors hidden tarns and disappearing waterways and is surrounded by spiraling peaks." "A difficult hike on steep and rocky terrain, Gothic Basin with all its rich beauty can't keep hikers away. The splendor of the basin can't be improved one bit. Past glaciers and the agents of erosion have left it pretty darn near to perfect." "Foggy Lake (elev. 5200 ft) - flanked by Gothic and Del Campo peaks and denuded of any shoreline vegetation is a starkly beautiful alpine lake." Roundtrip - 9.0 miles - Elevation gain 2,840 feet.
