I went once, in February, and it was still thronged with people. What a lovely spot!

It’s funny though — get a mile off on a trail and everyone disappears. I’m going back in a couple of weeks with my daughter, assuming the gov’t is still working and it’s open, and I’m trying to find a hike that will challenge her and not kill me.

Isn’t that the truth on getting a mile deep on a trail! Those flip-flops and high heels start to feel a little dicey after a bit. Hope you find a good trail.

Great pictures of the park! Never mind the new socks. Look at those calves of yours! Must be from all the hiking

Haha! No need to look for Mary. Besides, hiking was non-existent around the lake. Maybe there's some trails now after all these years

Yeah, that's not enough. For most hikes, i use 1.5. For my longer, more difficult hikes, I use 2.5.
