Slide Lake - June 17, 2015

I had low expectations for this hike but I had a persistent curiosity to see this far north part of the Glacier Peak Wilderness. It turned out to be a gem. In addition to the sunny clear skies and pleasant temperatures of this flawless late spring day; there was a lush old growth forest of hemlock growing up and out of a centuries old moss covered rock slide, the clear waters of Otter Creek, and the picturesque lake the slide formed. If you haven't been there it's worth a visit.


There should be a pot of gold here somewhere.






 The shoulder of SnowKing Mtn. was visible in the distance.
