This trail begins with Ira Spring trail after mount road about 3-4 miles from exit 45 on I90.. There were a couple trees across the trail in different locations and are passable. The trail to the lake is covered with snow around lake and mostly to mt .Defiance. Marked with orange strap on trees (thank you).First one our up is dry. After switch and ridge is mud and wet. Lake itself is half covered with snow (Mission lake.)Trail to Mt defiance hard to find in some point...used my GPS this time. On way back I did saw 100 plus people going up.(I start at 7:30am).
