A beautiful day out in Salmon La Sac!! Started off from Cathedral trailhead at 12pm on the dot.
*Stream running through Cle Elum Valley Road about a mile before the trailhead; my Subaru Forester JUST made it through the foot and a half of running water so beware of that!*
About a half mile into the trail, there is a large down tree obstructing the trail, so I would recommend Gaia Maps just so you know how to get back on the trail. Otherwise, beautiful trail with lots of little steam-waterfalls. The flies and mosquitoes were a bit of a bother, but eucalyptus oil repelled them from actually biting.
I only went up to Nosh Nosh Wahtum to check out the campground and it is beautiful and completely melted! Looks like a great camping area for the longer trek that is Deep Lake.
From trailhead to Nosh and back, was almost exactly 5 miles and took me about 2 hours up and down. Have fun!!
