A great hidden gem of a hike/trail system, & a great way to get up to Sprague Lake when its completely packed/booked out because you do not need a reservation. I would consider this moderate but the first 15% of it is a heavy incline and do suggest poles and/or proper hiking boots. (Staying to the right and hiking straight up to the Aspen grooves. You can use your gps to sprague lake. You’ll go past a glacier basin campground on your right about halfway) I have done this hike in regular trail sneakers just fine too, just depends on your comfort level. Also technically you’ll see signs that say you need a park pass because you will be in the park but I’ve never got one in the 12 times or so I’ve done this hike 😇 Also fun to bring a picnic or subs (from the country market) and eat at the top at sprague lake where there are lots of picnic tables and benches. My family and I bring a deck of cards or a game too!
