Round Lake — Saturday, Aug. 15, 2020

This tough hike was well worth the effort. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. There are a few spots along the trail where you have to work your way around a downed tree. At one point you'll have to crouch under a tree trunk and scoot through. The bugs are annoying. Despite the heat, I'd suggest long sleeves and covered legs. While the trail isn't as busy as Dickerman, Pilchuck, or some of the other popular Mt. Loop hikes, we did cross paths with about a dozen-plus other groups.
