The idyllic shores of Perseverance Lake are a popular day-hiking destination, especially on weekends. When the weather is warm enough, swimmers — both human and canine — may even take a dip off the "swimmer's rock."

When the trail forked shortly before the bridge across Perseverance Creek, you turned left to get here. If you were to turn right instead, you could continue in a long, challenging traverse to Carlanna Lakes, with an optional detour to Minerva Mountain in between. (There is no mass transit service at the Carlanna and Perseverance trailheads, so you would have to arrange for a taxi or other vehicle transfer to get back to your starting point.)
