Snow starts at trail head and is on / off for first couple miles, however by the time you reach the lake its all snow and lots of it with the lake frozen over. Snow is very crusted and even at 220 lbs. + pack i only broke threw when melted by water running under it. 2 Differnt cougar tracks walking together one much bigger then the other.
One larger water crossing with log accross it for easy passing however it is a bit slick.
GPS was used to find trail without it would have been all guess work.
Rained most of trip but was still better then being in town :)
Ps. lots of devils club
