Perfect day for a hike. The atmospheric visibility was unlimited. (Reminded me of the GUESS WHO song: “I can see for miles”). So I decided to take a hike to a lake in a valley.
Don’t get me wrong, it was a perfect day for a hike.
I arrived at 8:00. 5 other cars at the trailhead. At that time of day I had the lake to myself. Never been to lunch rock by my self either. However on the return trip I passed upwards of 40 people and 3 dogs.
Trail conditions excellent, no snow and mostly dry tread.
Take heed to the sign at the trail head indicating the really nice toilet at the campground by the lake is inoperable. However… there is a really nice open air pit toilet near the campground (follow the signs). This is thanks to an Eagle Scout project in 2021.
This will make it 50 years since I did this hike back in 1974. Still a good hike.
Once again perfect day for a hike.
Edit to original report: There is a car swallowing pothole (im not kidding) about 100 or so yards before you arrive at the Lena Lake trailhead. It is located on the left side. There is some paint markings on the pavement. So beware.
