Amazing day! My husband and I took this trail today just as a late day hike not expecting such beauty. Very easy hike and the first lake is easily reached if given time. We only made it too the bridge that was washed away at 4.5 miles due to time. Very nice trail with pretty flowers and small creek crossings that our lab loved. At 2 points in the trail about 2.5 miles in there is thicker brush but not bothersome. Once we reached the main river it was incredibly clear and beautiful with the backdrop of the mountain. The only slight annoyance was a few biting flies and mosquitoes, but not as bad as other hikes. At 4.5 miles we turned around as it was getting late, and on our way back we noticed shredded trees about head high up the tree and bear scat here and there, but nothing like other hikes like bald mountain trail. Not too far from the trees that were clawed we heard a bear growling and moaning not too far away up on the hill above that scared us a little. We just talked loudly and made our way back to the car at record time.
All in all we give it a 4/5 and can't wait to go back and go to the lakes!
