We arrived at Dream Lake. We could see trout in the lake & we wanted to try & catch them with our hands. We were bribed with ice cream to make this trek. It's about a four-mile hike. We stopped at a deli before getting to the trailhead for sandwiches so we could have dinner at the top. This hike is great because after the first half mile you reach Nymph Lake, another .6 is Dream Lake, and another .6 is Emerald Lake. It has easy turn arounds if people decide they can't go the whole way. The kids had to go the whole way. And they did! Mostly without complaining.
