Yes on all fronts. I got lucky with the weather for sure – not too hot but still warm enough to make a dip in Lucky Lake feel soooo good!

Haha I know, and I love that you worked “lucky” into your comment. I had so many plays on word in my head but since I hiked that trail solo I had no one to share them with. Probably better that way anyway. 😉

I couldn’t agree more on all fronts. The hike up was easy but still enough to get my heart rate up—and my temperature hot so I couldn’t wait for a dip in the lake!

Hahaha cute poop holes – I’m still cracking up over that. And yes, turns out listening to your intuition is good for hiking too!

I totally agree, Kelly! I think that wonderful things you stumble upon are even more magical for their unexpectedness. And that’s interesting Canada doesn’t allow dispersed camping. It can get to be a problem here when people aren’t responsible, but I’d say the vast majority of campers are good stewards of the land.

I have never heard of “dispersed camping” before. We are not allowed to do that in Canada, but I have often come across a spot while hiking that I had wanted to camp at. Adventures at their best!

Lucky Lake looks stunning, I’d love to camp for a couple of nights there. I never knew that poop holes were called cat holes, I don’t think we have a cute name for them in Australia 🙂

The trail looks quite easy and at the same time taxing enough and giving one the opportunity to enjoy the beauty of nature. Camping there must be a heavenly experience. Waking up in such beautiful environs must be such a divine experience. The views of course are stunning.

You were lucky with those amazing views. I love hiking in nature and to have that view at the end, I wouldn’t care how long it took to reach that.

I love the lake nestled in between the trees and the name of it as well. It looks like you had lovely weather as well!
