Crystal Lakes — Saturday, Jul. 23, 2022

Absolutely spectacular hike! The trail, while in great shape, is a pretty brutal uphill slog, but the view at the top is totally worth it. I got there at about 10:30 on a Saturday; the parking lot was full but there was enough space to park on the shoulder. The mosquitos at the lake are pretty nasty, but they'll leave you alone if you eat your lunch a little further away.
