The trail is open, with very thorough smoothing and fresh gravel for the first 3/4 mile. After that the trail gets a little rougher, with some big steps over roots and rocks. Nothing anyone can't tackle with some good tread!
Highly recommended to go the extra mile all the way around the lake. The boardwalk at the back end is surrounded by ripe salmonberries, and you can listen to the falls cascading off the mountain. I ate so many berries I didn't need the packed snack I brought along.
There's one good water source flowing decently on the way up, about 1 mile or so in.
Parking lot had spots available at 0930 on a Saturday, but probably because the trail is showing as temporarily closed. Hurry and visit before everyone finds out it's open again 😎
