This is one of my favorite hikes I’ve done, but I probably won’t return, simply because of the road conditions. We made it fine with our Ford Expedition in 4wd, but it was super slow, anxiety-inducing, and we felt a little sick after the 30 minutes of bumps to go the 4 miles up here. If you’ve gone to Heather Lake, the road is worse than that.
Beyond the road up, the trail is beautiful. There was lots of snow to be seen (today is Memorial Day), but none of it caused problems for the hike. The plant life was really neat. The lake itself was a cool reward after the not-steep hike.
Really enjoyed the hike itself.
