No, they are trying to fill the lake back up! It was awfully empty in July. Base camp listed that water source as questionable. I think they should have added an exclamation point.
Sure is a pretty spot though.

Superman. One of the advisors. 40 pounds on top of a large pack
already at 55 pounds! He may have shuffled some weight onto a few
other people on the critical day.
Whad ya'll do with all that water up on Deer Lake Mesa? Take showers?
