We loved this hike but it was crowded. We did see a hiker get rescued from this hike, so please be careful. She slipped and looked to have broken at least one bone. People were swimming in the lak… Full review by 212sallys

Very challenging hike on well marked up-up-up trail. Spend the $ and take the boat to skip 2 miles at front and back of the hike. Watch for horses , as they share the trail. Saw a moose, and mo… Full review by SusieDee1

Q:
Hi we want to take the trail to Iceberg lake. I have a one and half years old daughter. My husband is going to carry her. We are not great hikers. But we really want to go there. I wanted to know how hard is it? Is it possible to go there with my daughter? How difficult was the first part? Any image or description would be really great. Please let me know. We really appreciate this help. Thanks.

The first 1/4 or a mile is the steepest part. It's not crazy steep, but it does goes up at a fairly good grade. Take your time and take some stops and you should be fine. Once you reach the "top", you'll be walking on a fairly flat trail similar to a rails-to-trails incline for the majority of the way. In regard to carrying your daughter, it would be difficult to hike this trail with her in your arms, not to mention that it's not safe. If you mean that your husband will have her in a backpack carrier, then that's perfectly doable.
