Much of it was through the B&B fire of 2003. Many little frogs or toads, cedar waxwings, chipmunks

It was a nice hike. The gradual elevation gain and distance was short enough that I could bring my non-hiker friends. Real beautiful.

Backpacked this route 7/13. Weather was beautiful and hardly anyone on the trail. No one else was at the lake. Mosquitoes were ferocious almost the entire trail, but especially at Wasco Lake. The mosquitoes pretty much ignored that we had DEET on and a fire going. There were lots of snow crossings. About a dozen were a few hundred feet, another dozen were much more lengthy. We were able to do it without microspikes, but it was slow going.

Trail to Pamelia Lake is in a beautifully diverse forest and includes a stream that looks as if from a fairytale. After quite a climb up Grizzly Peak with many long switchbacks, you’re rewarded with an amazing view of Mt. Jeff and a great snack spot.

Stunning hike. Most of the hike is pretty straight forward on the PCT. once on the ridge you just have to pick a route and go. The crawl was rather simple. We did use rope here while down climbing. Only cause of blind holds. The summit block is awesome. Take at least 3 liters of water. No shade for a good portion of the hike. No place to filter which we saw. A must do!

Wasn’t able to finish the loop because there was too much snow on the PCT part and we didn’t bring the right equipment. Hiked in through square lake and up past jack lake for a couple nights of backpacking. Beautiful views, lots of bugs, moderate hike. Will be back.
