Know Before You Go:

  • Dog are welcome but small dogs may have difficulty with the steeper stair portions of the trail.

  • Be sure to take the side trip up to Bridal Veil Falls.

  • The lake is an excellent spot for swimming and SUPing.

  • A great early season hike, this lake sits at lower elevation and tends to thaw earlier than others.

  • The last mile of road to the trailhead is unpaved and has some potholes to avoid.

  • This hike is extremely popular, even on a weekday in summer the lot fills quickly and the trail can get congested - arrive early.
