The hike is not easy but it’s great! Lots of waterfalls and tons of wild flowers this past week. The views were amazing up above highland Mary lake. Felt like a sweet reward. Wet and muddy in lots of parts of the trail right now so be prepared. There are a few creek crossings. We took our shoes off the first two then gave in.

This trail had breathtaking views along the entire hike! There were so many wild flowers blooming when we went 8/6/23. There were a few creek crossings, but nothing too terrible. I definitely wouldn’t rate this hike as easy though. The altitude change was a lot, especially for being a flat lander. The uphill is intense, and we didn’t realize how steep we had climbed until we were coming back down. It was definitely worth the work though!
