• Snag Lake
  "Nice backcountry venue"
  "Snag Lake will be too long for a dayhike for many folks but is worth the trip, especially if you take a dip in the cool waters. The minimum trip would be over 9 miles out and back from the Butte Lake trailhead. Add another 5 if you wish to traverse around the lake. The other option is at least 13 mi..."les round trip out and back from Summit Lake trailhead. That is the option we took as we camped overnight at Snag Lake (free backcountry permit req'd) so we could hike up Cinder Cone the next morning.

We had a very nice time and enjoyed the cooler temperature. It was our first visit. We'd like to go back sometime to see the geothermal displays along the trails. " More >
