A serene and picturesque mountain landscape with a stunning alpine lake reflecting the rugged cliffs and vibrant autumn foliage. A wooden boardwalk extends out onto the glassy water surface, providing an inviting pathway for hikers to experience the natural beauty up close. Tall evergreen trees surround the lake, creating a dense and verdant forest setting. Fallen logs and boulders on the shoreline add rustic charm and a sense of untamed wilderness. The towering rock formations, adorned with golden hues, rise majestically above the tranquil scene, creating a striking contrast against the clear blue sky.

if you're going to wake up at 4:45 am to hike the 2.7 miles to Lake 22, take a friend. I don't think I've ever been more sketched out sleeping in my car than I was the night before this hike. It was definitely still worth it though, can't wait to head back in the winter! . . .
