That is a pretty unassuming name, I know; but it was a bit of a challenge today. The first couple miles up to Mirror lake were pretty easy and when we got there we were rewarded with the classic reflection picture of Mt Hood on the smooth surface. Beautiful. On from there it got a bit more tricky. Much of the trail is still covered with snow drifts more than 5 feet deep. We slipped and slid and sunk in up to our knees for nearly two hours. It was exhausting. The view was worth it though……
