Rachel Lake — Friday, Jun. 16, 2023

Got to the trailhead at 5:30pm Friday night and got to Rachel Lake by 8pm for an early season 1-nighter. Trail was completely clear of snow. A few patches at Rachel Lake but all the campsites were very clear. We did not make the trek up to Lila Lake but had heard from other hikers that it was pretty snow covered. The forecast originally said Saturday was going to have rain but ended up spritzing on Friday so we were a bit chilly at our campsite. A few people were camping along the forest road into the trailhead.
