The name of the hike is Johnston Canyon to Ink pots trail and it's absolutely beautiful.

This hike is 7.3 miles road trip with 2k ft elevation gain and was pretty challenging. There are two waterfalls in the beginning and middle of the trail and the trail is pretty crowded up to those points. However, if you continue, the trail ends with a beautiful valley and glacier pots and river. Putting my feet in the ice cold water of the river was a highlight of my day!
