MY buddy and I thought this would be an ok hike up to the lakes. But about half way up it started to poor like nobody's business. we moved on and in about 2 hrs we made it to the little lake, which we thought was great cuz we had such large bags and all. Make sure when you go hiking to only take what you need. We didn't even fish, once we set up camp we said lets just go on home. It was kind of nice that it only took about an hour to get back....All an All I think I would go back but it would have to be one real nice weekend. Best fishing
