SOME HELPFUL TIPS & REMINDERS:
1. If you want an intimate and
peaceful encounter with the lake better to go there during the weekdays so you
can have the lake by yourself.
2. It gets really cold during the night so never forget to bring coat or thick jacket to keep you comfortable.
3. Do not forget to bring flashlight as it will be very useful during the night.
4. Make sure to bring with you your
raincoat or waterproof bag since the weather is unpredictable.
5. They have a toilet, but it is
slightly uphill you need to hike up just a bit.
6. Do claygo (clean as you go).
7. Be a responsible hiker.
