A Goldilocks trail: neither too long nor too short, too steep nor too easy, just right! Beautiful and varied scenery throughout, a mix of sun and shade. Wildflowers in full force right now, bugs minimal (although we gave ourselves a good spray at the start). Stunning views all along the way. Trail dusty but well-maintained and easy going. Small parking lot was full by the time we arrived a little before 10A on a summer Saturday, parked about 0.3 miles down the road. Most folks must have headed to Lake Ingalls, as this trail was uncrowded and quiet. No cell service in the larger area, download maps and check in with folks in advance of turning onto North Fork Teanaway Rd.
Five hours on the trail, at a easy pace, with a short lunch break at the top.
