Lake Sarah sees pretty high levels of rainfall; December is the wettest month with most rain; July is when it's the driest. That right there is a heap already, but it goes on; Lake Sarah has it all. Have a nice hiking adventure along the Pacific Crest Trail - section 22, and get dripping wet paddling on Marion Creek. Life's too short to enjoy all the fun things in the Central Cascade Range. Lemiti Campground is a pleasant local campground, and Kuckup Park is right

The Central Cascade Range scenery is always beautiful. High temperatures at Lake Sarah during the warm months are in the 70's. Once the sun is down it falls down to the 40's. All through the wintertime the highs are generally in the 30's, and overnight lows at Lake Sarah all through the wintertime commonly dip into the 20's. All year is a delightful time in the Central Cascade Range if you adore the outdoors. Going for a hike along | |

the Blue Lake Camas Prairie Trail will let you absorb the natural beauty of this area; get yourself into a kayak and hit Metolius River.
Lake Sarah is not the only site nearby, Francis Lake is a nearby lake, and if you came for
an overnight stay Trout Lake Campground is a delightful spot to camp. If the weather is wonderful here at Lake Sarah, you can go for a hike along the Jefferson Creek Trail, obviously you could also check out Lost Lake since you're
here; it's not far at all. This lake is so wonderful. If you need a place to stay Lodge at Suttle Lake is a glorious choice.
This lake is so wonderful. Gotta ski! Hoodoo is a great location to do that, and the peak of Campbell Butte can be spotted from Lake Sarah.

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!... |
