14 miles of hiking • 3000' elevation gain •
After hearing all the reports about the Breitenbush Trailhead, I decided to do a trip from Olallie Lake area down toward Jefferson Park. I parked between Monon and Horseshoe lake and then cut over to the PCT and then down. The weather this time of year is my favorite—just cool enough and no bugs. Went up to the ridge above Jeffy Park, ate my lunch, and then went back down towards Breitenbush Lake.
I tried some fishing at Breitenbush and Horseshoe lakes, as well as a few of the little unnamed lakes, but everything was super small or not biting. These lakes are very shallow, it seems. I'd come back to Breitenbush lake to car camp—very nice and relatively quiet!
