Description

You start off with an easy stroll, and then it’s on. This is a rugged uphill hike passing through the trees to so many amazing and spectacular views of the Kenai Lake and the Cooper valley below. Three quarters the way up, you’ll come across a level grade extending to the right of the trail that extends about a half of a block and ends at a moss-covered ledge that is perfect for setting up your tent over looking a small lake below but a spectacular view of the Kenai Lake.
