Overview
This hike starts at the Thomas Lake Trailhead . Once you arrive, there are two tickets to entry. First, display your Northwest Forest Pass in plain sight inside your car. Then, you'll need to fill out a wilderness permit from the box at the trailhead and attach it to your pack. If you are backpacking, camping in the Thomas Lake and Blue Lake areas is only allowed in designated campsites (see the map at the trailhead}. Now, you're ready to start up the trail on a hike that takes you through classic indian Heaven meadows and past 11 named mountain lakes as well as a number of anonymous tarns. Bear in mind that in early summer mosquitoes abound along this trail of many lakes: many hikers wait until mid-summer to experience the delights of Indian Heaven because of the millions of jabbing proboscises.
