Medicine Bow National Forest: Trail Creek to Grassy Lake

We woke up this morning, ate breakfast, packed up camp and then made the short drive-up Sand Lake Road to the trailhead for our hike along Trail Creek to Grassy Lake.


It was a pleasant, well-used, but unofficial trail. The start of the trail meandered through a mix of forest and meadow. We crossed Trail Creek at an unbridged rock hop.


We would spend the rest of the hike following the north side of the creek to Grassy Lake. The scenery was very pleasant.


We stopped at a moldering, old cabin and had our picture taken.


After the cabin, the trail became fainter and disappeared altogether at some points. Still, there was much beautiful scenery to look at.





Soon, we found ourselves at Grassy Lake. 


We took a break at some rocks there.


Then, we retraced our steps back to the trailhead.
