This route follows the Snoqualmie Lake Trail to Lipsy Lake and a series of small waterfalls and cascades. The trail also hikes along the Taylor River and several smaller tributary creeks that flow into it lf you love waterfalls, spring through early summer is the best time to visit. The falls can be nearly dry by late summer.

We will be meeting by the trailhead at 9AM and we will wait about 15 minutes and show up to begin the hike.

By hiking with the group, you are agreeing to hike at your own risk. If you are uncomfortable with group settings, do not come.
