Busy day at the trailhead. Could barely find parking. Came across a group of 20somethings hiking in bare feet. Of course I expect nothing less from the very popular Snow Lake hike. Kind of foggy/smoky at the top but great views of the very calm lake waters. We pushed on to Gem Lake and it was spectacular as well. Fall colors are starting to show especially in the maples. A few bugs at Gem Lake. Trails in great shape.
