11.9 miles of hiking • 2000' elevation gain •
This is quite an awesome hike (except for completing the loop on the road). Not many views of Mt. St. Helens, but plenty of Coldwater Lake and Mt. Margaret Backcountry. We loved the bridge and views at the inlet to Coldwater Lake. Plenty of flowers still in bloom, and many berries starting to ripen! Only saw a few people on the trail!
