RE:Favorite Alpine Lake of All Time
I went up to Hyas last July - it is up near Salmon La Sac. An easy hike in (2 mi) lots of camping and an easy day trip from Seattle. I enjoyed it and plan to go back and explore it more thoroughly sometime. See my Secret Lakes report from 07/28/2007. I would be up for a WL.com alpine outing (though I don't have much for overnight hiking gear).
I fish not because I regard fishing as being terribly important, but because I suspect that so many of the other concerns of men are equally unimportant, and not nearly so much fun. ~ John Volker
RE:Favorite Alpine Lake of All Time
An alpine lake dayhike/backpacking/camping trip would be really cool! I'd be up for that.

RE:Favorite Alpine Lake of All Time
I don't have any special alpine lakes that I frequent except for a couple no-named ones by buddy used to take me to. I have quite a few faves in Oregon that I have gotten to know from boy scouting.
However, I am definitely interested in going along with the WL.com gang.

RE:Favorite Alpine Lake of All Time
Would like to see it done in the summer or late late spring. Unfortunately I had to miss the last WL.com BBQ at coulon but would like to attend one, and seeing as to how I'm off at school until early June, I wouldn't be able to make a spring outing...
Don't chase reports...Be the report others chase....
RE:Favorite Alpine Lake of All Time
Late summer works best. End of July through August. Alot of places still have snow in June, also the mosquitos are in full bloom right after ice-out!

Thanks! I thought it was fun. I knew there'd be some old(er) salts on here that would get it.quadradomus wrote:Hookemdanno, I love it! You are dating yourself with that one.. You need to go to the "Explain your Avitar" thread under Announcements, etc.
No explanation necessary, but very good just the same.
Couldn't find the Explain your Avitar thread though.

I'm one of the "old salts" that remembers Steve McGarett (Jack Lord). Great show!
RE:Favorite Alpine Lake of All Time
i'm down for a group hike in camp!
there's nothing better than standing on the side of a lake or river knowing that only a handful of people have stood in that exact spot and witness the beauty of mother nature first hand.
