Heather Lake Trail in Mount Baker Snoqualmie National Forest
Heather Lake Trail in the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest offers hikers a journey through diverse landscapes, beginning in dense second-growth forest adorned with remnants of ancient cedar stumps, relics from past logging activities. As the trail ascends, it transitions into lush old-growth woodland, where towering western redcedars and mountain hemlocks create a serene canopy, accompanied by the soothing sounds of cascading creeks. Upon reaching Heather Lake, nestled beneath the rugged cliffs of Mount Pilchuck, visitors are rewarded with tranquil waters reflecting the surrounding peaks and, in summer months, vibrant wildflowers that fringe the lakeshore. #Hike #Loop #Lake #Forest #Mountain #Nature
