Barclay Lake — Sunday, Feb. 22, 1998

Central Cascades > Stevens Pass - West

Cathy's been most everywhere, from Zanzibar to Barclay Square. But she hasn't been to Barclay Lake. There is about six inches of new snow. The snow covers up what would be an otherwise very muddy trail. There is only one large windfall on the trail alongside the lake. There are flags marking the trail to Eagle Lake for those so inclined. Barclay Lake is still about 90% iced, but there are some snow-free areas to set down a tent. As the sun warmed Baring Mountain, there were frequent avalanches and rockfalls sliding down the slope. Good thing the mountain is on the other side of the lake. There were some bunny and fox tracks, but they were in different places so Brer Fox probably had to join Yogi in pilfering picnic baskets. http://www.geocities.com/~rangermike
