Park at the Second Creek Trailhead. This trail is a high alpine trail and melts out enough to hike mid to late June.

Runner Notes

This is great for trail running.

Description

This trail is great either as a short jaunt to the hut or as part of a longer hike up to the Mount Nystrom Trail. The trail ascends quickly up a wide trail and then starts up a more technical section towards tree line. Just before reaching Broome Hut, there are some picnic tables with an amazing view of the second creek headwall.
