Steep trail, big steps, one exposed traverse along a hillside (careful!), and a lake that lives up to its name. 

As always, bring the ten essentials, including rain gear. If you have questions, please don't hesitate to ask. 

Anticipate an early start, getting to the Lake Serene trailhead around 8 a.m.

Let's determine the most convenient carpooling location closer to the date based on the locations of those who register.
