Snow Lake is a 2.5 mile, or about a two hour hike from the off-road car park. It is easy to moderate, with a series of slight ridges to cross, ascending and descending into meadows and glacial lakes reaching Bench Lake after ¾ mile, then continuing another ½ mile to Snow Lake.
On the way to Mt. Rainier I passed this lake with hundreds of clear-cut trees.
The destination is never the focus of a road trip. The best experiences and photos are along the path to get there.
Eighty percent of mountain climbing accidents happen on the descent. Little did I know I was about to become another statistic.
