Brief description: This is a moderate day hike along the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) and is a nice alternate route to quiet Mirror Lake, or just a lovely little forest ramble on a quiet section of the well-maintained trail.The trail is never particularly steep here. More information and trip reports can be found on the WTA trail description. 

Trip Sheet: this activity page and emails to registered participants will have all the necessary information for a successful trip.
