Hiked Cannon Mountain via Lonesome Lake to Hi-Cannon and the ladder to Kinsman Ridge. Back down Kinsman Ridge to Lonesome Lake Trail around the lake and back out. Lafayette Camp Trailhead parking was full and had to park down the road at The Basin which added and extra 3 miles round trip to the hike. There was a threat of a thunderstorm while we were at the summit but it is missed us. It was my friend Rose's first 4000 footer.
