Running
The trail is a nontechnical singletrack which climbs steadily all the way up to the CDT. The trail is beautiful and very remote — it is not uncommon to see bear, elk and moose. Definitely bring bear spray in your belt or pack and running with bells is not a bad idea. Just as you start to break out of treeline at the top you will be presented with a fork; both directions lead to similar spots on the CDT, but the right fork takes you to Williams Lake and the left trail takes you to a couple smaller lakes.
