The initial hike up to Elbow Lake is uphill and then it flattens out. The trail is wide with a few streams to cross as it continues past Edworthy Waterfall. Towards Tombstone Campground the trail is wide and rocky, so good boots with ankle support is recommended. The uphill portion to the lakes is quite steep compared to the trail that came before.
