Shoe Lake via Pacific Crest Trail

The hike to Shoe Lake is on the PCT and is deeply rutted at the beginning especially the switchbacks. There is camping near by Ginnette Lake (mosquitoes in season). If you want to get off the PCT though I don’t know why you would, there is a trail that will take you by Hell Lake and on to Twin Peaks, elevation 5843. But continue on the PCT 3.4 miles and traverse a narrow rocky trail to Hogback Mt. Views are gorgeous. After a short climb descend the PCT until you reach a sign for Shoe Lake. Go left (rather than continuing on the PCT ) 1.6 miles to the lake. No camping permitted at the lake. The green trail map will show a loop around the lake but it takes you away from the lake and result in a somewhat steep climb back to the PCT. The old loop around the lake has been re-vegetated so return the way you came. You will share the trail with day, section and through hikers along with the occasional horse/mule packers.

Great hike! Bugs were absolutely terrible so we had to speed through most of the sections. I think I’m the future I’ll do this hike later on in the season to avoid the biting flies.

Nannie Peak

Great “burner” to Nannie Peak. July is prime mosquito season and within 30 seconds of standing still I was covered with those things. I intended to continue along Nanny Ridge to Sheep Lake but I very quickly got tired of the bugs. Dog loved the 5 miles we did. Take water as there isn’t anything clean to drink on the trail. There are several options if you are looking for a longer hike

Walupt Creek Falls

Start of the hike was tough. No real trail, relied heavily on gps and sense of direction. Fortunately there were a few marked trees that I used to guide myself to the “trail” once I crossed the creek. After that it was a straight shot to the waterfall

Snowgrass Trail #96 and Goat Ridge Trail #95 Loop

You are drowned in amazing views throughout this entire hike. Treat it as a long day hike, or make it an overnight like we did and camp at Goat Lake with the whistlepigs....they offer endless entertainment. Bring your food into your tent at night, or they will get into it.
