     Just can't get enough of the Central Cascade Range. Get yourself into a kayak and hit Metolius River, and you get a great view of Campbell Butte from here. There is a nice hiking trail in the neighborhood of Lost Lake called the Blue Lake Camas Prairie Trail, and naturally, this is a good region for people who like lakes, Lake Alice is a lake around here. This lake is so wonderful. Float down the rapids of Marion Creek in a kayak.
So much exciting stuff
 
   to do at Lost Lake, so little time. Near Lost Lake you come across the Cub Creek Trail which is a splendid hiking trail, and Kuckup Park is a gorgeous site any time of year.

This lake is so wonderful. A tremendous spot to camp here at Lost Lake is Trout Lake Campground, and you're perhaps addicted to lakes, Lake Sarah is one of those nearby. Camping is available at Lemiti Campground, and the slopes of Hoodoo are so inviting noone can resist. And that's not all you can do here in the Central Cascade Range. The Pacific Crest Trail - section 22 is a great hiking trail near Lost Lake; if you need a site to stay Lodge at Suttle Lake is a good choice.
A lot of rain falls at Lost Lake; of all the months in a year December is the one with the most rain, and July is when it's the driest.

Pacific Crest Trail - section 22
Roundtrip Distance 13.7 miles
Elevation Gain 2,348 ft.
This peak is trailless, meaning a portion or all of the route up the mountain is via an unmarked trail. For this particular mountain, the typical route is known as a ''herd path'' which is not much more than a worn, but unmarked trail. Some of the herd paths are easy to follow, others are not. In many instances the hiker will travel down a false herd path and eventually have to correct his/her course via backtracking. For these particular mountains, it is imperative that the hiker carry a compass (and know how to use it) and topographic map....

Jefferson Lake Trail
I just completed this trail with my German Shepherd and had a great time. We made Jefferson Lake in 4 hours, stayed the night and returned at a faster pace, making the trailhead in 3 hours. A big portion of the trail is overgrown with 5ft. tall plant life, making the trail impossible to see. I used a compass to stay on course and bushwhack for about 3 miles, then picked up the trail again. It's obvious this trail hasn't received any attention from the forest service for some time now,so plan on using your nav skills on this one. We encountered a braver-than-average black bear while encamped at Jefferson Lake, and had difficulty finding a suitable place to hang a bear bag since all the trees are limbless due to a forest fire. My dog, Sigg, is a good bear deterrant and took the night shift guarding the food bag. If you are considering this trail, start early enough so you're not walking in the dark and bring some good jungle juice (deet). Bear bells may be useful as well. Hope this helps somebody!...
