Carpools encouraged. 

Parking pass needed: Discover Pass 

Please note that the stats on this hike are a bit more aggressive than was originally posted in the CHS1 hike list. 

Mostly just a walk through the woods to a couple of different lakes and a short diversion to an outlook. 

Let's plan to grab a meal together in the area afterwards. Suggestion: The Old Edison. https://g.page/TheOldEdison?share
