Goat Lake Loop Hike

Overview

This is one of the best alpine hikes in Oregon and Washington - on your "must do list" for sure. The highest section of the hike, around Goat Lake , is snow covered until about late July and is very exposed during bad weather, so keep an eye on the weather reports. Also, consider taking mosquito repellent for this hike because bugs are numerous there in July and August. Since it's so nice, this route tends to get overrun, especially on summer weekends, so you might want to do a different hike then. And don't expect solitude: see this Craig Romano article .
