Heart Lake via Lily Basin Trail — Monday, Aug. 14, 2000

South Cascades > Goat Rocks
Trail #86 to Heart lake was a great hike! The wildflowers were in full bloom. Huckleberries ripe at about 2 miles in.The trail was good until Lily basin then the melting snows above made the trail wet/muddy in places. Only one snow spot that was fine to cross going in and bad on the return so we had to go down in the gully! The spot may be melted by the next weekend. The Mt. goat herd was cruising around the peaks of Goat Rocks. We saw several groups of hikers which was fine because there was plenty of room for everyone! Cold at night.
