Trip Details

Date: August 18, 2023

Trail: Skookum Lake

Trail #: 542

Submitted by: Rob

Trail Conditions

Trail has recently been logged out and is in good to excellent shape. There are a couple of brushy spots but they are short and easy to traverse – most of the trail is in GREAT shape. The trail down to the lake is a bit rougher although all the logs are cut out – a few areas are really brushy but relatively easy to get thru as long as you pay attention.
