We began the hike from the trailhead that is across Hwy-11 from the camping area entrance. This path follows the trail up rather than part of one of the service roads. In the lower section of the trail the Fiddleheads of new growth on the ferns is profuse and farther along the trail there are quite a few Trillium in bloom and in the swampy areas near the lake the skunk cabbage is in full force.

The trail around the lake offers a different terrain than the trail going up to the lake with rock walls a hundred feet high that come done to the trail's edge on the east side.
