Goat Lake
I celebrated Labor Day by returning to my favorite lake. We took the lower trail along Elliott Creek in both directions. Trail is in perfect condition. The payoff for driving a little out of the way and dealing with 4.5 miles of gravel road in each direction is a gorgeous lake and not that many other hikers to share it with even on a pefect holiday weekend.

Dog Mountain (May 23)

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.)
