Our first clue was that we prepared ourselves for rain. (We didn't get any, but still.)
Our second clue was that THIS is what we found on the county road half-way to the trailhead ...
Oops. (Do you notice the double yellow lines? Continuing on the other side of the, um, rapids?)
We ended up driving a little farther down Hwy 2, driving up 7 miles of dirt road (in a minivan, mind you, so you at least know those roads weren't too bad), and hiking halfway around Lake Elizabeth (only halfway because the path was too wet/muddy to get through on the other side).
The girls enjoyed jumping over mud, examining waterfalls, and playing with the snow we found along the way. They want to go back tomorrow. (Of course.) We'll remember to call ahead next time to make sure the roads are where they're supposed to be. :)
