Today wasn’t as bad as planned—we cut it short and camped at Wilson Creek at 9500 feet, just below Benson Pass.  We took a slow and steady pace from Benson Lake to Benson Pass and made it quite easily—maybe we’re getting stronger!  Smedberg Lake was beautiful—water was very warm.  Our campsite is also nice, with gurgling water of Wilson Creek nearby.
