From this angle you can see how the trail climbs gently from Big Bear Lake up to Grays Peak. Grays Peak, on the western end of Big Bear Lake, is unique in that it offers views lengthwise down the lake.

The hike is steadily uphill, but not steep. Overall the climb is pleasant and easy for most folks with decent fitness.
