Dog Lake & Lake Mary is a beautiful, quick hike up by Brighton. Today, we had snow, rain & sunshine. The trail has pretty views. Seems like the lake is/was getting drained. It was lower than we have ever seen it. There are some steeper areas, but overall, I would say it is pretty easy overall. We tracked this at 3.5 miles total. You can easily make it longer by hooking on to adjoining trails.
