The Bagley Lakes Trail travels .75 mile one-way along the eastern shore of Bagley Lake. Table Mountain and Mt. Herman tower above this family-friendly lakeshore hike.
Waterfalls, wildflowers and spectacular autumn colors grace a landscape shaped by volcanoes and glaciers. Sandpipers and water ouzels are just two of the bird species frequently you can see by this lake. To form a two-mile loop, the trail can link with Chain Lakes Trail or the Wild Goose Trail, which follows the bench above the lake.

I watched them for about 5 minutes before they slowly moved off along the very steep slopes.

In South Africa, the common expression for marijuana is "Dagga". So tribally throughout generations it has been traditional for the Xhosa people to smoke this stuff. Oddly enouth we found a sample of it in Kirstenbosch gardens.
