I joined the swarms who descended en masse to get in one more late season hike. It was an exquisite day in the mountains. I picked Snow Lake since I hadn't been there in quite a few years and I was looking for something a little easier. The trail was indeed wet as others have reported - about as wet as the Rachel Lake/Rampart Ridge Trail in the summer. The mountains had a dusting of snow that reminded me of powdered sugar on brownies. There was about an inch or so of snow on the north facing slopes of the lake. I appreciated having my hiking poles, but I'm pregnant and a bit wobblier than usual. All in all a blissful day in the NW.
