Ira Spring Trail - Mason Lake

Beautiful evening hike.We liek doing an after work midweek hike, and after some research, this was it. The trail was is excellent condition. Very easy to follow. Talk about solitude!! we only saw 2 other people. (It does pay off to hike on a weekday in the evening). And the views from the top at night were surreal. We could see the lights of cars driving on I90, and beyond city lights.
The only complaint I have that the entry says that is a 6 mile roundtrip hike, but right at the trailhead there is a sign that clearly states 3.4 mile one way. This ended up adding another hour to hour hike. Had we been hiking in the daylight this would have been fine. However, This was an evening/night hike for us, and it got very late. We will definately return to do it during the day to admire the views.
