Wallace Falls State Park - Greg Ball Trail to Wallace Lake — Sunday, Jun. 26, 2022

Arrived at the park around noon. The parking lot was mostly full, there may have been 3–5 spaces left.

We made it to Lake Wallace in roughly 2 hours. The heat was brutal and even the tree cover didn't offer much respite. The walk up to the lake is beautiful, you can catch glimpses of a roaring stream nearby.

We checked map signage located at the entrance to the lake. It indicated there was a pebble beach on the left side of the lake (relative to the direction you're facing while reading the sign). It ended up actually being on the opposite end of the lake.

Nonetheless, we made it to the pebble beach along the Lake Wallace waterfront and enjoyed cooling off in the hot, summer sun. I would recommend sandals or some other shoe that can get wet (if wearing hiking boots up to the trail). The pebbles are more like jagged rocks and they stabbed my feet.

After a short rest, we hiked to Jay Lake, which is about another mile further. This turned out to be disappointing as there is no lake access (from what we could see) and the trail dead-ends at a campsite.

From the Jay Lake campsite back to the parking lot, it took us just over 2.5 hours.
