Best done in July - fields of wild flowers in bloom. August - as you can see, the foliage is drying up. There is a direct path from White Pine Campground to White Pine Lake. Unfortunately this is not marked on the topo maps. The topo map trail markings are different from the ones that are actually in use. So it'll seem like you're walking parallel to the trail marked on the map until both meet at the white pine creek Lots of backcountry trails Very dog friendly - you'll meet a lot if them! Moderate difficulty trail
