TravelerBeautiful hike and lake
I hiked there many years ago just after Saint Helens erupted. Amazing place. First time I ever backpacked.

ScoutExcellent hike.
I would suggest 6 to 8 hours to hike in, sight see around the lake and hike out. Moderate to heavy traffic. Get to the parking lot early or no parking. Reserved parking for those permitted to camp overnight.

Beautiful 4 mile hike up (8 round trip) to the lake. There was a weird smell coming from the river, so maybe don’t drink from it haha. Bring plenty of your own water, also BUG SPRAY. Lots of bugs at the lakeside. It’s definitely still worth it for that view of dragon tails pass.
