This is one of my top hikes. You will see lots of mountain waterfalls, small lakes and wild flowers. We did this hike in September so it wasn’t packed. It rained and hailed which made it challenging at times, but well worth every step. The only drawback was that it was very windy at the top so we couldn’t hang out at the amazing blue lake.
