Got to parking lot maybe around 10 am (on a Friday) and lots of spaces left. Make sure NOT to park in the spot reserved for those who won the lottery for an overnight permit.
I put on bug spray before the hike so they were not that bad.
We got into the cold water and it was really refreshing. Only saw a couple of other people near the lake. (It was pleasantly less popular than Lake Colchuck, which we did last summer with hoards of people.)
We then hiked around the lake as far as we could go, checking out the camping sites for those fortunate folks who won the permit lottery.
