The trail has a few interesting spots (rocks, roots, etc.), but mostly it's pretty simple and straightforward. A pretty good climb, especially the last few hundred yards to the lake. Pretty brushy in the lower section, but opens up nicely with some nice single track. Absolutely beautiful area up there. You can jump in the cold lake for a quick rinse off before descending. Since there are grizzly bears in those mountains, don't ride alone and be careful. Courtesy of Singletracks.com

Never modify trail features. Ride trails when they're dry enough that you won't leave ruts. Speak up when you see others on the trail and always yield to hikers, horses, and others coming uphill. Always ride on the established trail.
