Like most who use this trail undoubtedly, we took it as far as the lake. No hazards on this trail, no snow (although there were some icy spots in the latter part of the trail, where the air felt considerably cooler than earlier on even though we hadn't gained any elevation) and -- on Friday at least -- no people. (Although there were two other vehicles at the trailhead, we did not see anyone either on the trail or at the lake.) The biggest annoyance was seeing bicycle tracks on this hiker- and horse-only trail, including inside the wilderness area.
