This Hike: We will do the LSHT trail portion between TH parking #'s 3 to the intersection with Little Lake Creek Loop Trail, ~3.1mi, that we then take to loop around back to the start for a total of 13.2mi. For people who want to do less, the option is to do an out and back for the miles interested. We'll have a snack break at ~ 5mi mark and at that time people can decide to back-track to just do ~ 10mi hike or continue to do the full 13.1mi.
