Another great hike. We were the 3rd car in the parking lot. Lake Serene is/was a great trail. Today not so much……. 100+ trees to go over, under, or around. The creeks have gone over most of the banks.

MICRO spikes ON or OFF. That was the question! If you put your spikes on “early” you spent lots of time on the rocks w/o any snow. If you put your spikes on late you were great on the rocks, but it was slippery in the ice.
I had to take Kersee off the leash to get through all the brush.

With the MICRO spikes on we only had a few creeks and a slide path to cross.

What a view! Kersee and I had snacks and something to drink while we took in the view.
Thank for your time.
