Hello Let's Hike PNW!
I am planning a hike up to the Granite Lakes
Moderate - 7.7mi Trail length out and back
2,400ft Elevation gain
4hr44min Average time
Out & back

October 13th hike will be out to the Granite Lakes. This trail ascends through a valley surrounded by mountain peaks to two pristine alpine lakes. The trail is well-maintained but can be overgrown in some sections. The lakes are a great spot to take a swim, stop for a snack break and take in the scenery. Please bring good hiking shoes, water and snacks with you.

We will be meeting by the trailhead at 10AM 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.
