    Nice hike up here in late September! Waterfall looks nice. You can see beautiful fall colors and alpine lakes from this spot. The trail from here to Sky Pond seemed snow covered and strenuous so we didn't continue.

    What a hike! Tough for sure, but so worth it! You'll have to blaze your own trail to the top of the falls and on to the lake of glass! We didn't go all the way to sky pond since we were so wore out getting here. Bring plenty of water since this is a tough hike. Take your time and it's so worth it.
