EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

This is looking north from the summit of White Baldy, Little Cottonwood Canyon, Utah. 11,321 feet.

This one was taken slightly earlier from a sub peak to the south looking north at the White Baldy summit.

This was a tougher hike/climb with tons of talus rock and gendarmes on the ridges, making for real slow going. But worth it, that country up there is incredible.
 
Absolutely love the beauty of your pics, but in the back of my mind I can't help but wonder...how's the fishing there??

Thanks! I've yet to do much fishing out this way, but I've been planning to start. The thing is, all of these alpine lakes that I hike up to are at fairly high altitude, and only fed by snow accumulation (or occasionally glacier). I have seen a few small trout though, which piqued my interest, so I did a bit of research to satisfy my curiosity. It turns out that there are not naturally fish in most of these lakes, but at some point they were stocked (and may be every few years, but I'm not sure if that info is current). So while there are definitely some up there, I haven't seen any large ones, and they are certainly not abundant like I am used to where I come from (Indian River/Mosquito Lagoon/Canaveral National Seashore) in Florida. I'm sure I'll give it a shot at some point though.
