Rob: Gold Creek
Good trail after the 2 miles of gravel road. Pretty surreal views once you get into the valley. Hundreds of small butterflies in the forest, followed by tons of giant dragonflies in the meadows. Unfortunatley, you cannot get over to the waterfall (at least after spring) due to the thick ground-cover).
Couldn't cross Gold Creek because the water level was so high. If we had our Tivas we may have been okay to cross and make it up to Alaska Lake.
