17.5 miles of hiking • 4250' elevation gain •
I headed out on a Saint Helens Lake Loop with a new hiking friend on Presidents Day. It was a beautiful, sunny day, even if the winds battered us all day long. We started at Hummocks and worked our way through the blast zone to JRO and past Harry's Ridge. We continued up to the Arch and around Coldwater Peak and finished the day on the Coldwater trail. We had amazing views the entire time and finished the day watching the mountain light up in the most amazing sunset as we headed out for home. Perfect way to spend an entire day!
