Lake Angeles

 We hiked up to Lake Angeles from the Heart O the Hills area on the north side of Olympic National Park. This is a 7.5 mile round trip hike with 2,400 ft of elevation gain. This is a beautiful forest with lots of shades of green.

 With the rain and recent storm melt, the streams were gushing.












One of two water crossings on the trail

Lots of water

This toad tried to hike from us, but he was a good size.

 We ran into the clouds as we continued hiking up the trail

 There are some nice places to sit along the lake shore.

 There is a boot path along the west side of the lake, loved the various views
