    Great hike, would do it again. We parked at the first lot and walked the road (2.5m) to the trailhead, due to some other reviews…while 4x4 is needed, it wasn’t nearly as bad as we expected and could have made it to the second parking lot at least. (By Sidewinder TH) Trail was clean, well kept and easy to follow. Great views, was a little snow (Feb19th) on the ground and definitely some muddy spots, saw a few people down at the campground, but pretty much had the place to ourselves.
