The trail will take you through forests for several miles before it begins opening up to numerous lakes and meadows. The trail goes over several passes, none to large but you will be doing some slow hiking back over them on the way back. As you get closer to the bigger mountains, the trail just becomes more and more scenic until you end up in Titcomb Basin, a massive amphitheater full of rocky cliffs, spires and snowfields.
