Owyhigh Lakes
Started from the White River side. First time on this trail though I'd driven past it about 100 times. Fairly easy grade and travels through nothing but forest until you get to the lakes. No views of the mountain. Good choice for a rainy day.

Forest is dense and mossy. Meadows are probably decent in summer but couldn't comment on that this time of year. View of the lakes and surrounding ridges is ok but not spectacular.

Lots of day hikers and some overnighters on the trail. Parking is limited.

Nice pics, how's the snow in the area? I thought the road was closed into Sunrise? Thanks for the update.
