Those looking for a longer trail can drop down to Emma Matilda Lake for a 10.7 mile loop. Heading around the lakeshore, hikers will be met with views of the Teton Range. In early to mid-summer, wildflowers populate the area, brightening up the landscape and making for stunning views. Don't forget the bug spray!
