Bullseye Traverse (day 2): Chain Lakes to Frosty Pass via Bull’s Tooth summit

20 September 2020

Our second day of what we’ve termed the Bullseye Traverse (in the spirit of all the bull-themed waypoints) brings us over Bullseye Pass, past the Bull’s Head, and to the base of the Bull’s Tooth, our summit for this trip through the Alpine Lakes Wilderness. There’s not a great deal of trail kilometres covered today, but the thrill of standing high over the surrounding lakes and peaks, however smoky the view may be, makes for an incredibly spectacular experience.

Trail stats: Chain Lakes to Frosty Pass via Bull’s Tooth summit

Distance: 10km

Elevation gain: 540m (including Bull’s Tooth summit)

Trail hours: 3.5hrs + 4.5hrs RT for Bull’s Tooth summit

Highlights: Waking up to a stunning reflection of the Upper Icicle Mountains at our campsite; scrambling and roped climbing up to the Bull’s Tooth summit; overlooking the Doelle Lakes; camping in a sea of red heather (and finishing all the tequila at dinner)

Campsite: Wild camping just below Frosty Pass

Following yesterday’s flawless weather, we wake up this morning to slight haze obscuring what would otherwise be a blue sky. And yet, our lake campsite is BEYOND beautiful, the early morning light filtering in through the trees to illuminate a perfect reflection of the Bull’s Head in Middle Chain Lake. I spend more than a bit of time running around in the trees just gasping at the view from every possible angle.

Several dozen photos later, around 930am, we eagerly set off for the remainder of our climb up to Bullseye Pass. The trail switchbacks steeply up to the high point, avoiding a large talus field and offering a wonderful panorama of the somewhat smoky Chain Lakes below.

It takes just 30min to reach the pass, from which we only have to walk a short distance down the trail before reaching a spot directly below the Bull’s Tooth.

Here, we drop our packs, step into harnesses, strap on helmets and, after a short snack break, begin blazing our way up the heathered hillside. There’s no actual trail, so we use our poles to pull ourselves up the impossibly steep southeast slope until we reach rocks, rubber-necking back at the ever-improving view with every couple steps.

Eventually, we are forced to drop our poles and continue upwards on hands and feet, scrambling over large granite rocks that are extremely grippy and covered with handholds as if by design. This Class 3 traverse brings us up and over a hump before dropping beneath the summit on the western side.

The fun only continues after we rope up, Eileen leading up the south ridge as I follow in the middle position, dad bringing up the rear (to take unflattering photos of me while I ascend). I’m certainly happy to be roped for this Class 4-5 section of our climb, perilously exposed on either side as we scale slightly trickier rock faces in pursuit of the Bull’s Tooth.

With a 40m rope, we make it nearly to the summit in a single pitch; for the final few vertical metres, dad tethers to a sturdy rock and belays me to the tippy top, where I stand on a small rock overlooking the hazy valley below.

A group of hikers several kilometres away spots me on the summit and whoops their approval. I flap my arms back, feeling on top of the world.

Descending from the summit proves the greatest challenge of the day— the sheer granite face that felt easy enough to run up is essentially devoid of foot or handholds for my descend.

I eventually settle on a graceless slither down the rock, impressed when I make it back without tearing my pants. After each dad and Eileen take their turns on the summit (and it gives me some relief to see that I’m not the only one who had slight difficulty with the large granite rock), we set up a tether around another sturdy rock for our descent.

It takes a series of 3 rappels to return to the scrambling terrain below (during which time I managed to fall through a hole in the granite deceptively camouflaged by a small growth of heather).

All said and done, our side trip amounts to 4.5hrs, leaving us to wolf down some food when we reach our packs and then head off shortly after for Doelle Lakes below.

Smoke over Doelle Lake

Our original intent was to make it to Lake Margaret for camp, just below Frosty Pass. However, it soon becomes clear that, not only is that going to be a dark journey this late in the day, the ever-worsening cloud of bushfire smoke is currently settling into the valley.

Over the next few hours, the smoke completely socks us in and we are forced to reconsider not only the night’s plans, but also the trip itself.

The favoured solution is setting up camp at a high point just short of Frosty Pass and hiking out via an alternative trail to Whitepine, where we are hopeful that we can get family friends Jim and Sarah to retrieve us tomorrow afternoon.

No one is thrilled to cut the loop short, but given the worsening conditions that obscure all views and might also compromise our ability to go hiking the following weekend (I already have a headache from the smoke and I get pretty congested during the night), it’s a smart plan. And thankfully, day 3 proves every bit as eventful as our first 2 days, smoke and all.

  • DOHA, QATAR 🇶🇦✨

Without the flashy excess of the UAE & Saudi, Doha offers a more authentic slice of the Arabian Gulf, where culture & tradition meet striking modern architecture, world-class art, and a glittering skyline. 

We loved our time in Doha and would highly recommend as a quick stopover next time you’re flying through the Middle East!

WHAT TO SEE
⭐️ Souq Waqif: a buzzing market with spices, textiles & gold, perfect for getting lost + taking photos
⭐️ Museum of Islamic Art: one of the world’s most stunning Islamic art collections
⭐️ Dhow Harbour: traditional wooden boats bobbing in the water with Doha’s skyline behind (great for photography!)
⭐️ Mina District: neighbourhood with colourful pastel buildings & street art, best explored in golden light of late afternoon
⭐️ Fish Market: the most beautiful stained-glass ceiling I’ve ever seen, worth a quick walk through while exploring Mina!
⭐️ Qanat Quartier: a rainbow-hued “Little Venice” with canals, bridges & plenty of great restaurants 
⭐️ Katara Cultural Village: a great place to discover local culture 

HOW MANY DAYS?
we spent 4 days in Doha, but you can see most of the city’s highlights in 2-3 days 

GETTING AROUND
Uber is the best way to get across the city to visit some of the farther places of interest

  • Standing on the rim of one of the largest active volcanoes in the world, with smoke billowing out of the crater right behind us 🌋🔥

Mt Aso National Park is one of Japan’s coolest hiking spots, but still seriously underrated! With craggy lava fields, steaming vents & surreal views in every direction, you can hike right up to the rim of Nakadake Crater (when it’s safe!) and we had this spot completely to ourselves 💃🏻

  • Pivoting away from all the Japan photos for a moment to share a sleeper hit from last year’s travels that didn’t make it onto the feed (because I’m perpetually behind on posting…) → Qatar!!

This small Middle Eastern country was never on my list, but while we were in the region for the 2nd half of last year, we decided to take advantage of the Qatar Airways stopover program (this isn’t sponsored, it’s just a really cool program 😅)

For no extra cost, we were able to build a 4-day stopover into our flights from Oman to Egypt, and we ended up having WAY more fun in Qatar than expected. You don’t need long to explore (you could cram most of the highlights into 2-3 days), but it’s guaranteed to impress!

I’ll share some of our favourite experiences from Doha tomorrow, but WOW, who knew!?

  • Cut by the bright turquoise Gokase River, this magical little gorge in central Kyushu is often called the most beautiful place in Japan— and we might just agree!! 🇯🇵🌸✨

📍 Takachiho Gorge, Miyazaki Prefecture

TIPS FOR VISITING:
- the site is open 8am-5pm
- entry is ¥1,000 per person + parking is available nearby
- reserve a row boat (30min) for ¥4,000 on weekdays or ¥5,000 on weeekends (boats do sell out!)
- the best light is after 10.30am, when sun hits the waterfall
- free paths run along both sides of the gorge, so you can enjoy great views even if you don’t hire a boat

👇🏻 If you’ve been to Japan, what’s the most beautiful place in your opinion? (tell me in the comments so I can save for our next Japan trip 😅)
  • things in Japan that just make sense: it’s gotta be the free footbaths, for me!! 

📍 Sakurajima Nagisa Foot Bath Park in Kagoshima, Japan

road-tripping through Kyushu on a rainy day in May, we pulled over at these baths near the active Sakurajima volcano and couldn’t believe the view. these are one of the longest footbaths in Japan, with more than 100m of naturally-heated water from deep underground, and amazingly it’s completely FREE to visit!

  • Welcome to the Beppu Hells 🔥

Beppu is one of Japan’s most famous onsen towns, known for its Hells (Jigoku), a collection of dramatic hot spring pools that are way too hot for bathing but incredible to look at!

There are 7 main “hells”, each with its own character:
- Umi Jigoku (Sea Hell): a steaming cobalt blue pool and a gorgeous foot bath (one of the only places the water is hot but safe)
- Oniishibozu Jigoku (Monk’s Head Hell): bubbling grey mud pools
- Shiraike Jigoku (White Pond Hell): milky turquoise pond surrounded by gardens
- Kamado Jigoku (Cooking Pot Hell): multi-coloured pools + steam vents, plus you can buy volcanic steam-cooked eggs and buns (believed to have health benefits, but also a super fun novelty snack)
- Oniyama Jigoku (Demon Mountain Hell): home to 70+ crocodiles (!)
- Chinoike Jigoku (Blood Pond Hell): deep red iron-rich pool
- Tatsumaki Jigoku (Spout Hell): powerful geyser erupting every 30–40min

TIPS FOR VISITING
💴 Entry: ¥2,200 for a combo ticket (all 7 hells)
⏱️ Timing: allow 2–3hrs to explore
🚗 Getting around: you can easily walk between the hells, but since it was raining, we drove our little hire car
☔️ When to visit: open year-round; fun even on rainy days!

  • postcards from magical little Miyajima 🌸✨

this island is located about an hour from Hiroshima & is a fantastic day trip— but even better as a relaxing overnighter. 

visit the iconic red Torii Gate, take the scenic ropeway to Mt Misen’s Peak, feed the free-roaming deer, sample the island’s many oyster treats, see the 5-story pagoda Taho-to, and cap it all off with a traditional stay at Kikunoya. slow-paced bliss ✨

⭐️ Souq Waqif: a buzzing market with spices, textiles & gold, perfect for getting lost + taking photos
⭐️ Museum of Islamic Art: one of the world’s most stunning Islamic art collections
⭐️ Dhow Harbour: traditional wooden boats bobbing in the water with Doha’s skyline behind (great for photography!)
⭐️ Mina District: neighbourhood with colourful pastel buildings & street art, best explored in golden light of late afternoon
⭐️ Fish Market: the most beautiful stained-glass ceiling I’ve ever seen, worth a quick walk through while exploring Mina!
⭐️ Qanat Quartier: a rainbow-hued “Little Venice” with canals, bridges & plenty of great restaurants 
⭐️ Katara Cultural Village: a great place to discover local culture 

HOW MANY DAYS?
we spent 4 days in Doha, but you can see most of the city’s highlights in 2-3 days 

GETTING AROUND
Uber is the best way to get across the city to visit some of the farther places of interest

DOHA, QATAR 🇶🇦✨

Without the flashy excess of the UAE & Saudi, Doha offers a more authentic slice of the Arabian Gulf, where culture & tradition meet striking modern architecture, world-class art, and a glittering skyline.

Standing on the rim of one of the largest active volcanoes in the world, with smoke billowing out of the crater right behind us 🌋🔥

Mt Aso National Park is one of Japan’s coolest hiking spots, but still seriously underrated! With craggy lava fields, steaming vents & surreal views in every direction, you can hike right up to the rim of Nakadake Crater (when it’s safe!) and we had this spot completely to ourselves 💃🏻

welcome to Qatar 🇶🇦✨ One of the most surprising places we visited in the Middle East was Doha! Without the flashy excess of the UAE & Saudi, Doha offers a more authentic slice of the Arabian Gulf, where culture & tradition meet striking modern architecture, and the city feels welcoming, approachable & surprisingly easy to explore. HOW MANY DAYS? we spent 4 days in Doha, but you can see most of the city’s highlights in 2-3 days GETTING AROUND Uber is the best way to get across the city to visit some of the farther places of interest PLACE FEATURED IN THIS VIDEO 📍Souq Waqif: a buzzing market with spices, textiles & gold, perfect for getting lost + taking photos 📍Museum of Islamic Art: one of the world’s most stunning Islamic art collections, in an iconic I.M. Pei-designed building 📍Dhow Harbour: traditional wooden boats bobbing in the water with Doha’s skyline behind (great for photography or a boat ride!) 📍Mina District: neighbourhood with colourful pastel buildings & street art, best explored in golden light of late afternoon 📍Fish Market: a lively (& very local) slice of daily life in the Mina District, with the most beautiful stained-glass ceiling I’ve ever seen! 📍Qanat Quartier: a quirky “Little Venice” with canals & bridges, plenty of great restaurants here 📍Katara Cultural Village: home to art galleries, amphitheatres & beachfront cafés . . . . #qatar #doha #qatarairways #arabiangulf #persiangulf #middleeast #visitQatar #DohaQatar

Pivoting away from all the Japan photos for a moment to share a sleeper hit from last year’s travels that didn’t make it onto the feed (because I’m perpetually behind on posting…) → Qatar!!

This small Middle Eastern country was never on my list, but while we were in the region for the 2nd half of last year, we decided to take advantage of the Qatar Airways stopover program (this isn’t sponsored, it’s just a really cool program 😅)

For no extra cost, we were able to build a 4-day stopover into our flights from Oman to Egypt, and we ended up having WAY more fun in Qatar than expected. You don’t need long to explore (you could cram most of the highlights into 2-3 days), but it’s guaranteed to impress!

I’ll share some of our favourite experiences from Doha tomorrow, but WOW, who knew!?
