My ultimate destination was the Tolmie Peak Lookout, but that trail was way too busy for me so I decided to take this hike first and allow the crowds to disperse. From Mowich Lake, the trail descends into a beautiful forest to connect with the Wonderland Trail before it ascends again. Take the short 100 ft spur trail to the overlook for amazing mountain views, then keep heading up to a side trail that takes you to Spray Falls in .25 mile. The falls themselves are beautiful, but you need to cross the creek to get a good view and the rocks were pretty slippery. I didn't want to risk getting wet since I still had a long way to hike. I assumed I could get a better view from the top so I continued up to the meadows.
I never did see the falls again, but the expansive meadows were beautiful and full of berries. In the summer the wildflowers cover the meadows. I was told coming down the hill that there was a bear and two cubs up there but I didn't see them. It's hard to know where to turn around since the trail keeps going, so find a spot for lunch, suck in the mountain and enjoy the walk back to the trailhead.
