Round Lake — Sunday, Jul. 23, 2023

North Cascades > Mountain Loop Highway

Download directions and map. You will loose cell at gravel road.

Trail can be tricky as you exit the forest to find lake.
First Y in road, left.
Second Y, left.
Then when you are going down to lake, you will come to a marsh, some people might think it's a water crossing. It looks like there's a very clear trail straight ahead, it is not the right way. Stay right. You will see the trail. Just walk along the marsh straight towards the lake.
There is a hidden privy though, if you do go straight, at bottom on hike by lake, it takes you a little bushwacking through the woods where you will find a privy that not many people probably won't exist.

Overall great butt kicking hike with a fun refreshing lake at the end.
Clocked 11.5 miles with 1/4 mile privy hunt when went the wrong way by the lake.
