Awesome hike! Make sure you start early and bring plenty of water, most of the trail has little to no shade. 6 hrs with 1.5 hrs at the top.

Great trail, starts off very mild along the shores of the lake before heading up towards the glacier. Perfect for a day hike.

Josephine lake trail detoured to south side so added mileage. Also missed cut off and ended at hidden falls and backtracked adding more miles.

Probably my favorite hike in the park so far. The views are fantastic everywhere. We did the boat ride and thus cut off about 3 miles. Nice ride.

This trail has some of the most amazing views along the path and is open the majority of the way so prepare if it is a hot day. You'll be in the sun

Extremely beautiful ascent, especially in the rising sunlight. However, considerably crowded descent detracts from trail's serenity.

Trail was closed 3.1 mile up. So you can not get to Upper Grinnell Lake. Snow bridge was failing and unstable. We saw a grizzly cub 100' on trail.
