Excellent views and good fishing are both possible along this trail.

Evidence of recent and historic mining activity is visible near Carson Pass on the Continental Divide. A short but steep side trip allows one to see the mining activity on a first-hand basis.

Another excellent side trip from this trail is a hike to Heart Lake.

Very few good camping places are available along the upper 4 miles of this trail.
