South Cascades > Mount St. Helens

Look for the very visible Harmony Viewpoint sign. Well maintained trail. Nice and cool along the first half of the trail (10:30am) which runs along the side of the mountain and in the morning shade. Amazing how much has grown back 35 years after the eruption. The trail ends at the lake. Perfect place for a picnic but you will be in full sun. No shade at the lake. Take plenty of water. I almost had the place to myself. I really enjoyed seeing Spirit Lake up close.
