Glenn,
If you do go to Boreas Ponds, I would suggest you also spend a little bit of time at Henderson Lake (if you haven’t been there already), which is not far from there and has a relatively easy path in to the launch (less than 1/2 mile). I’m not sure about handicapped parking but the lot is quite extensive.
Once you near the end of the trail and the water becomes visible, the atmosphere is very striking and the mountains feel very close. The photos below are a bit grainy because my phone was in a protective case…there was a tremendous amount of wind and waves on the lake that day…But in sum, it’s a very special place…
