Looks nice, and there's still a lot of water!

[@hikebytes]

Yes surprisingly! We stumbled across this when we were going to go on a different hike that was closed so we had a change of plans and ended up here! Spring time it will have much more water but it was such a great peaceful and relaxing spot to refresh! 😎😎

[@hikebytes]

Hi there!
It is a 4.1 mi hike round trip . We have a link in our description with info and recommend using the All Trails app on any hiking adventure it lets you know when you are off trail so you can safely get to your destination and back . Always download your navigation before you head out to the trails that way if there is no service it's already downloaded to the app and you can still follow the guided map to your destination.
