Snow Lake
We parked at the Alpental Parking lot and followed the South Fork Snoqualmie River. (The map calls it a river but it looks like a stream to me!) After passing Source Lake we climbed the avalanche chute to the pass. We traversed the ridge above Snow Lake. The wind and snow had blasted the trees into strange and wonderful shapes. After lunch, we descended the avalanche chute to the Source Lake Trail. After the intersection with the Snow Lake Trail we grew tired of the noisy hordes and descended to the river again. We followed the river to the parking lot. The snow was crusty and icy. Temps in mid 30's. It was a lovely loop with great views and a wonderful work out.
