Lake Twenty Two, Washingon

A 5.5 mile hike into Washington's Northern Cascades. The trail is more creek bed than actual dirt path, with dozens of waterfalls pouring over top of the walkway. As you round the last bend and the lake finally comes into sight you stop dead in your tracks. The swirling cloud of fog, closing off the top of the amphitheater slowly drifts in and out of the trees that curtain the sides of the lake. At least 10 glacial waterfalls decorate the back wall of the lake, pouring down 1000' of cliff face before splashing into the still, crystal clear waters. This is how you fall in love with nature.
