We thought that a Friday in the middle of October, with below-freezing weather forecast, would give Snow Lake Trail some semblance of wildness, but no such luck. Crowded as always, especially when we were walking back on Saturday. Most campsites taken by the time we got there around 5pm, though we found a sweet one on a bluff.

Oh well, the fall colors were spectacular, the lake pretty as always, late blueberries sweet, mild frostbyte --- priceless.

Anyone knows where the the trail that forks left at the top of the ridge go? We didn't have time to investigate...

old trail

The left fork at the ridge top is the old Snow Lake trail. It takes the long way but rejoins below at the the junction for the "Source Lake Overlook" . Not maintained but still passable and very scenic. Few people.
