Greider Lakes — Thursday, Apr. 17, 2014

Central Cascades > Stevens Pass - West

Much of what was said in the previous trip report is still true. Beautiful hike in a wild and remote area, extremely well-maintained despite pretty rough terrain. Hikers should note that the original road to the trailhead is defunct, and they must park at the South Shore Spada Lake recreation area. This makes for a shorter drive but a longer hike, about five miles longer in fact (2.5 miles each way). The creek crossings before you reach the trailhead were sketchy and a bit deeper than they were the last time I was here, around November. There was a lot of running water on the actual Greider Lakes trail and some snow at the lakes, especially between the big lake and the little lake.
