Starting from Hatchery Trailhead there was snow at the parking lot but not enough for snowshoes yet. We hiked the Babe Haught trail to the rim with blue skies but the wind was kicking which made a bit of wind chill. Once on the rim we were more protected and it was quite nice. We finally put on the snowshoes about 1/4 mile from Rim Road 300. Fortunately for us @Chumley had been up here with Kyle on this exact route 2 days before so we had a beautiful snowshoe track already groomed. I believe we mentioned how great it was a several times throughout the day! We might have a new snowshoe strategy :-k

Eventually we made it down the draw to the inlet on the south end of Knoll Lake. Found a nice little spot in the sun with only slight breeze for lunch along the frozen lake shore. Great peaceful spot to enjoy what is usually craziness in the summer. After lunch we headed back the way we snowshoed in. Awesome day out in the snow!
