     This lake is so wonderful. If you're here, you might as well stop by Lick Creek Summit, and Foolhen Meadows is a good place to check out. Around Summit Lake you don’t get a lot of rain; all through May this area sees the most rain while July is ordinarily the driest month. Whohoo, so many exciting things in one place! The Salmon River Mountains rocks! Going for a hike on the Fall Creek Trail is always a fine adventure, and Summit Lake is great enough to spend  
   more than a day at, Lake Fork Campground is a great local campground.
You just can't picture the amount of outdoors entertaining stuff the Salmon River Mountains has to offer. If you come at the right time of year, Payette River - North Fork offers some great whitewater, and after a long day outdoors Super 8 McCall is a good location to spend a night or two. At Summit Lake you can make out Sawtooth Peak, and if you came to camp Black Lee Campground is a perfect
 
               site to do that. The Box Lake Trail is a splendid hiking trail near Summit Lake, and since you might be in a lake visiting mood you can always have a look at nearby Burnside Lake.

Amazing escape! A fun hike and a fantastic fishing lake!...

Kennally Creek Trail
11 miles away
I love the Kennally Creek area and have camped at the Kennally Creek Campground for over thirty years.  I have never done much hiking but have found I really enjoy it.  I am having a family reunion next summer and some of the members are hikers, fisherman, horse back riders--just ourtdoors people in general.  I saw on the map at the campground that there are several lakes up the trail and was wondering what lakes are accessible from trails--in particular, Nick Lake, as well as others.  Any information you could provide would be wonderful! ...

Miners Peak Trail
15 miles away
The trail has not been maintained. I was able to hike it easily to the top 2 or 3 years ago. Not today...It was overgrown a lot and substantial deadfall. There are some burned spots also. That said, it's beautiful and a rigorous hike. Wear pants as the twigs will scratch you, and take insect repellant. Check your body for ticks also. The lookout is cool....

Blackmare Lake
15 miles away
The trail to Blackmare Lake is in very poor shape. The fire last year weakened the trees and the wind took down many of them. There are several 24-36' logs across the trail preventing horse travel. Hikers can make the trek, but expect to be climbing over a lot of down timber. The trails themselves are not terrible, but they are very loose with decomposed granite sand.
The other big problem with the trail is that past the signs at the first bridge, there is absolutely no direction as to where the trails will take you or how far you are along the trails. ...
