Enjoyable hike to Avalanche Lake. Lots of shade in the first part of the hike (Trail of the Cedars). Great view of the thundering waterfall right as trail of the cedars ends and avalanche trail begins. The trail is an easy grade and ends at Avalanche Lake where there are wooden log benches and lots of people. If you don't like people, this isn't the hike for you. We got the last parking space in the parking area at 7a.

We continued to the start of the lake where the trail ends. You can cross to the other side where the lake is narrow, if desired. The water is frigid, but beautiful and clear blue.
