My husband and I were not really intending to do much hiking today, but instead were going to fish in Fragrance Lake. You used to be able to have a short hike in from the top of Cleator road, but I guess it's was washed out during the winter. You can still park half way up Cleator though, and the hike we went on was really pretty.
The hike from the gate is a little tough for about the first mile because it's uphill the hole way. But after it evens out there is a really pretty waterfall. We have hiked to the lake from Chuckanut before and I think I liked the views from this way better.
To get to the lake you need to take the Left trail where the trail splits and follow the creek to the lake. The upper trail is supposed to have good views but we didn't go up there.
