5.4 miles of hiking • 500' elevation gain •
After yesterday's hike in a light dusting of snow I craved more of the white stuff! We headed out to Government camp to hike the myriad of trails in the area. I also wanted to complete the Enid Lake loop that we never finished. The snow was a bit deeper than expected (4"-6"), which made for slower hiking. Enid Lake looks very nice with a dusting of snow around the lake and on the trees! Because the temperature rose above freezing, it felt like it was always raining when we were below the canopy. In addition, the large clumps of snow were always falling from trees like mortars! It snowed for a brief time toward the beginning of the hike and had some occasional clearings during the day. Excellent hike!
