This is an easy hike trail that is perfect for families and a great way to get out and stretch your legs. Key points about the hike:
- very easy access to the trail head.
- first part of the hike (and return) have awesome views north and west.
- you are on a section of the PCT which is cool.
- recent trail work (WTA?) has the trail in great condition
- no bugs!
- Saturday hike during a warm weather spell and few on the trail
- our dog enjoyed access to two lakes
- Lodge lake was muddy on the edges.
- a couple of good and comfortable lunch/camping spots at Lodge Lake.
- easy to extend the hike to any distance sine you are on the PCT
We will put this on the list to do again since it is so easy to get to and makes for such a nice day.
