Bench Lake
For my second hike this morning, I drove a short distance east of Reflection Lakes to the Snow Lake Trailhead, hiking to Bench Lake and back: 1.5 miles round trip with about 300 ft of overall gain. View of Mt Rainier looking across the road from the trailhead

Down at the shore of Bench Lake, the view of Mt Rainier reflecting in the lake was gorgeous!
There were only a few wildflowers in bloom along this trail along with some berries:
