Goat Mountain and Deadman's Lake — Sunday, Aug. 23, 2020

South Cascades > Mount St. Helens

With our dog, hiked up the Goat Mountain trail to soak up the views. The trail is in good condition the whole way. The start is about 1.5 miles ascending about 1900 feet, but after you hit the ridgeline, it is just a rolling single track trail with stunning views! The huckleberries are prime right now, and the wildflowers are still hanging on along the ridge. No water, until the lake if you go that far, so make sure you bring enough for you and your dogs! We had lunch at the saddle on the shoulder of goat mountain, enjoyed the views, and turned back there because the dog was a little hot and tired! 

Highly recommended for an easy hike with killer views if you’re in the area.
