Lena Lake — Friday, Apr. 10, 2009

Olympic Peninsula > Hood Canal
Can anyone name this for us?
We hiked to Lower Lena Lake, six miles round trip with 1300 feet of gradual elevation gain. The forest at the crossing of underground Lena Creek on a sturdy bridge at about 1.8 miles is beautiful with many large moss covered boulders. We met 5 hikers leaving as we neared the lake. There was a lone backpacker there for a week, but we never saw him so had solitude which is unusual for this trail.We turned around at the overlook where the fog came and went. The trail is in good condition. There were several blooming trillium and many blooming yellow violets along the first mile of trail.
Looking back at the bridge
