Beautiful, pretty easy hike. Plenty of shade and crossing 2-3 creeks gives four-legged hikers plenty of water on the way :)
Depending on your altitude adjustment I’d rate the trail between easy and moderate :)

Nice hike with some good views, sequoias, streams for water and quite a bit of shade. Saw very few hikers on the trail and had Summit Lake to ourselves.
Good training hike with a variety of incline.

Great trail! Did it in stock Jeep jku rubicon. Has plenty of side routes for more hard core stuff. Definitely an intermediate trail. It’s calm most of the time and sprinkled with quite a few spots where I went 4 low and crawled through. Never needed lockers. Lots of great rocks and places to explore and picnic. Plenty of shade.

Light trail that leads to an awesome camping spot that overlooks The Valley.

Lovely little hike if you start at Fox Meadows parking. Mostly shaded. Three stream crossings. Ascend on the way out, rest and swim at the lake, then descend back down. Lots of little kids on this hike and a few dogs swimming at Weaver.

First time doing this hike or going to this area. The hike is short, but has a few uphill climbs that can be a tad exhausting. My kids 11 and 7 loved it. If you time the hike just right, you might catch a glimpse of the fighter jets doing a fly by.

This a great hike for a day hike to a beautiful lake. It is especially good for young kids - our boys our 7 and 12 and can make this hike

Lovely hike thru Mountain Home State Forest Sequoia Grove. Crossed North/Middle Tule River several times on the way up to beautiful Summit Lake. Several of us did slip on rocks crossing and got feet wet. Total gain up to lake was 3100’ and 7.6 miles. Additional 350’ gain on return with RT of 15.1 miles.

Lockwood Grove is now a remote sequoia grove. At one time you could drive to this grove. The Rough fire of 2015 changed this. The road has been closed going on 4 years now. I don’t see any progress going towards reopening this road. The forest service has a way of condemning roads after a fire. This is now a hike climbing over fallen trees. Ducking under trees. Climbing along fallen trees. Though this Grove is still worth seeing a portion was destroyed by the Rough fire. Enjoy but remember you’ll need to be agile to get here.
