Base to Lovers Leap:
Short hike and stop at lovers Leap is beautiful and a great place to cool off as it was windy and I suspect it often gets wind as it protrudes out into a narrow valley.
Water at Lovers Leap Camp is from a tank ten minute walk from camp and needs to be purified. It is very sulfury. Read this as: nasty nasty tasting. Ok for cooking, avoid for drinking if possible, so conserve your clean water and pack extra when heading to here. Perhaps treat it as a dry camp.
There will be better tasting potable water at Miners Camp if heading to or through there.
