I only wish I would of done this sooner. I had scrolled over this all summer and finally went. I can't even describe how beautiful it is. There are amazing pools to swim in all along the trail. The hike is perfect for people just getting into backpacking, nothing to steep or crazy. Highly recommend not settling for one of the earlier campsites, go the 4 miles to the third bridge. This will be a repeat backpacking trip for me. I wish I could post pictures of where I camped, I found a nice flat rock 20 inches from the river. This is a must do adventure.

This place was amazing! I recommend the peninsula campground. Make sure to pack all your food before you leave home, there aren't any stores within an hour of the lake. The last 15 miles in are dirt road. Wake up crystal clear water and bald eagles looking for breakfast. The trout are abundant but not huge. So much more I could say about this place...... Just go
