Description
The trail can be strenuous as you climb the side of the mountain. Areas are rocky, narrow, and uneven. Near the top, beautiful views of the waterfall and valley make this a worthwhile trek. Continuing to the lake showcases multiple areas to sit and enjoy a snack. A well-established campsite adjacent to the lake would make this an appropriate spot to overnight.
