DAC Hikes - Rattlesnake Ridge

A beautiful, sunny, and warm day for a walk up to beautiful views. A moderate and snow-free two miles hike up to the first set of cliffs (300 feet high) rewarded us with scenic views pictured above. We were 1000 feet above the lake at that point. As you can see from the pictures it was quite popular. I was surprised that people were as close to the edge as they were. Those cliffs are not without danger, the last fatality was in 2018 when someone slipped and fell taking pictures near the edge.

We were up and down before lunch with no fatalities.
