Only a third of a mile from the trailhead is picturesque Adams Falls, which is a big draw much of the trail traffic drops off from here. From Cat's Lair campsite to Lone Pine Lake, the trail breaks into a steep climb of roughly 1000 foot elevation gain over two miles. For the next 3.5 miles to just before Fourth Lake, the altitude gain is relatively flat, only gaining approximately 500 feet.
