TRT day 5 was probably our toughest day, both in terms of distance and elevation gain. We were all exhausted by the time we arrived at Round Lake. I’d downloaded the App ViewRanger. It proved really useful in identifying the various peaks in the distance – including the aptly and anatomically correctly named The Nipple.
