I chose this hike because it was close and I could get there and easily do it in a day. The hike is beautiful with a couple of waterfalls that n the way up. Huckleberries were in abundance. Because it is close to the interstate I think the trail was relatively crowded with perhaps 6 groups of people but it is still a big place so I mostly had the trail to myself. The trail connecting lower Stevens lake to upper Stevens lake is incorrect on the map. The map shows the trail going up on the west side of the creek that connects the two lakes but it actually goes up the east side. I would go again.
