Road was fine going in.
Trail was good all the way through the clear cut, but once you get into the forest it's impossible to stay on the trail due to the snow. We hiked straight up the hill on top of the snow to the ridge and were able to find the trail leading down to the lake. But the snow was even worse on the other side of the ridge, and we abandoned the hike after making it down just one switchback. Definitely wait a week or so for that snow to melt...
