9.3 miles of hiking • 750' elevation gain •
This trail is being improved on the east side of the access point, and is closed, but can be gotten to from the west side of the lake. There was a misleading sign that made it seem that the trail was closed 3 miles ahead, from where we parked, but it was really three miles from the start of the trail (and ended at the bridge at the pool).
I thought my son would enjoy this fairly level trail, and he did very much! Plenty of Lake Crescent views and not many people on the trail! An excellent day with just a bit of haze. Our parking area was also near the TH for the Pyramid Mountain Trail, and we went a short distance up that so we could log it on the GPS. I definitely want to hike this trail in the future!
