To the third weekend of August, we realized that we wanted to do some nice hike, but it should be pretty lazy. For such case, we had reserved idea – a hike relatively near home with a night in the forest.<\/p>\n

Valhalla lake can be reached by PCT (Pacific-crest trail) from the trailhead on Stevens pass.
\n<\/p>\n

The trail starts in the forest among spruces and mushrooms.<\/p>\n

After it ascents to screes and porcini.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The trail passes Valhalla lake and continues to the north.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We stayed at the lake.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The lake is nice, deep, clean, perfect for swimming. The only disadvantage – too many people. However, we found the bank piece for us only.<\/p>\n

There are two mountains above the lake. In the morning of the next day, we visited one of them, Mount Mc Causland.<\/p>\n

View from the lake to another mountain, Lichtenberg Mountain.<\/p>\n

Return way brought many nice porcini for our dinner.<\/p>\n
