I have done rattlesnake ledge last year and absolutely love it. It’s a easy hike and definitely a good one to start your hike season. It was a nice day in the spring and we decided to kick start our hiking with this hike.

The Lake at the beginning of the trail did not have that much water, probably because of the time of the year. It was full last year when we were here around June. The hike up to the ledge is not an easy one at the same time not a tougher one too. But the view on the top of the ledge is amazing. It’s delightful to view the lake from the top. After spending half hour there, we did not want to hold up the spot for long, since we had a wonderful view from our spot. The hike down was not bad at all. We finished it in ease. A wonderful hike to start the season.
