Views from the Lakeshore trail.
A WTA work crew cleared 7 miles of the Chelan Lakeshore trail from Prince Creek north. Lots of blowdowns removed but still some brushing and drainage remains to be done. The trail starts at Prince Creek campground and crosses the rocky delta to a sparsely wooded plateau. A sign there directs hikers up to the Prince Creek trail or forward along the Chelan Lakeshore trail. The trail winds along the shore sometimes climbing as high as 500 feet above the water. Beautiful scenery of the lake and mountains beyond for the entire length.
