Lake 22 was an awesome hike.







Lake 22 is north of Verlot in the Snoqualmie and Mt. Baker National Forest. If anyone digs hiking, this is the trail! It was a tough day for finds-just 2 pennies. The hike up to the lake is approximately 2.8 miles. When you reach the lake, it's an amazing sight-breath taking! The perimeter hike around the lake is approximately 1.2 miles. The hike from start to finish takes about 4 hours. Our hike was on July 18, 2009. There was still a trace of snow near the lake. We tackled the glacier too. Check out some of the photos and video from the hike. The distance of cruising down the glacier is deceiving. It's steep and far. The video is over 1 minute long, and the butt surfing is nearly 30 seconds. The funny-not so funny thing about the video, is that I wanted to video Claire coming down the glacier. I unfortunately left the camera up at the top and had to trek up a second time. Talk about a work out!!
