Backcountry Trip - Mildred Lakes via Hamma Hamma trailhead
(Snohomish Mountain Wilderness, bordering Olympic National Park)

After just two days of being back from Europe, barely recovered from jetlag, the weather over SW Washington was something I couldn't pass up. Michelle, starting school in just a few days, quickly agreed to meet at the trailhead. We were both quickly rewarded for the drives. Deserted trails (besdies the hunters) and a lightly used in and out lake trailhead lead us to a series of three crystal lakes ringed by the rugged peaks of the southern Olympic Range.
