This hike was a last minute decision, chosen because it would be warmer than Boulder River that day.

The trail was in good condition, there were a couple muddy spots and one or two large puddles covering the path above the falls.

Along the wider part of the trail leading to the lake there were tiny patches of snow on the grass along the sides of the trail but nothing substantial.

We encountered maybe a dozen other hikers on the trail from start to finish.

GPS says we hiked almost 10 miles to do most of the loop, we didn't go all the way to the lake shore.

Dog Mountain

South Cascades

Head to Dog Mountain for Columbia River Gorge views and an explosion of wildflowers. Eager to get in shape for summer? Head straight up the mountain on the northern side. Take the slow and steady eastern flank trail to stop and smell the flowers. (See if you can spot recent work by WTA trail crews.)
