Beaver Lake — Saturday, Dec. 19, 2020

North Cascades > Mountain Loop Highway

Hiked this in the clear weather this morning before the rain started. We were the only ones there. Trail is in good shape, a couple of downed trees to step over and a bit of mud in spots.

As a previous report mentioned, the big tree that blocked the trail earlier this year has a good notch cut out of it now for climbing through. Still requires a bit of a scramble if you're short like I am, especially on the return, but definitely doable.

This is a super quick trail as it's so flat. We paused to enjoy the views of the beaver dams at the trail end at the broken bridge. You can still see the rest of the trail beyond, would love to see the bridge fixed up someday. Overall a great little jaunt through pretty forest with some good river views.

Did you find this trip report helpful?
