Talapus and Olallie Lakes — Wednesday, Nov. 19, 2025

Arrived around 11:30am, only five cars in the lot. The dirt road section was in good condition, a few spots where it narrows due to debris buildup on the sides, including around a few blind turns, so just proceed slowly on those. The toilet at the trailhead has a closed for the season sign on it. Trail was in good shape, no snow, a few muddy spots here and there, but no big deal. A little more mud at the end of the trail near Olallie, but nothing that difficult to navigate. Great hike with scenic forests, mountain streams, and a couple lakes.
