    Bench Lake is a lake worth visiting. So many exciting things to do here at Bench Lake, too good to be true. Soar down the rapids of Taylor River in a kayak, and Paradise Lakes is a nearby lake that you could go to. Bench Lake gets a great deal of water; during December this area sees the most rain while July is the month with the least amount of precipitation. You just can't envision the amount of outdoors enjoyable stuff the Northern Cascade Range has to offer.  
   If you need a place to stay Salish Lodge And Spa is a great choice; a lake nearby is Bear Lakes.
Summertime brings highs in the 70's to Bench Lake. Summer nighttime lows sink down to the 50's. During the winter highs are mostly in the 40's with winter lows in the 30's overnight here at Bench Lake. Whohoo, so much fun stuff in one place! The Northern Cascade Range is peerless! Bear Creek is in the vicinity of Bench Lake and is always a pleasure to pop by,
 
               and camping at Commonwealth Campground is always a great experience. This lake is so wonderful. Go for a hike on the Middle Fork Trail, and since you're here, you might as well have a look at Devils Canyon.
This lake is so wonderful. Get yourself into a kayak and hit Money Creek, and if you came to camp West Fork Campground is a wonderful location to do that. This lake is one of the great places here in the Northern Cascade Range. The skiing at Alpental is wonderful.
Good hiking is available along the Mount Defiance Trail; Bare Mountain is easy to spot from Bench Lake. There's wonderful hiking along the Pratt Lake Trail, and everyone close by loves skiing at Snoqualmie.

Honey Lake
The lake no longer has any trails to it. All trails are gone from nature reclaiming it. The only way into lake is through quartz creek road(no vehicles)2.5 miles. From there it is a bushwack up to the ridge(2000 ft). From the ridge you can see honey lake. 1000 feet down. The bush is thick in that area (45 degree angle going up and down(or it seem that steep). 15 years ago some guys fished out the lake in one day. Before tha the fish were between 18 to 24 inches rainbow. If you can make it you deserve the good fishing. Haven't fished there in 20 years it may not have any fish in it or it has big fish (I dont know never made it close enough recently to fish). Good luck. ...

Lunker Lake is a realistic and entertaining family game, that is easily played by people of all ages. This ultimate freshwater fishing game is both exciting and challenging for anglers and non-anglers alike. There are several species of fish lurking in the depths of Lunker Lake. Including Muskie, Walleye, Lake Trout, Pike, Large and Small Mouth Bass? but you must catch the ''Lunkers'' to open your options. The first player to catch 2 fish from each of the 6 different areas in the lake is TOP ANGLER and wins the game.

From the steep and deep to the high-speed buffed-out cruisers, from our gentle learning areas to our benchmark parks and pipe, diversity is a way of life around here. With four unique base areas and less than an hour from Seattle on Interstate 90, no other resort in the country offers so much variety with this much convenience. Consider it a buffet for the outdoor enthusiast!
For the third year in a row, we stayed open longer than any other resort in the state, this season through Memorial Day. What can we say? We love spring skiing as much as you do!
So if you're looking for a true escape this winter, look no further than The Summit.
Just around the corner...

Stephens Pass

Stevens has a wide diversity of trails and runs that suits every riding style. From beginner to expert and for those terrain park junkies Stevens has you covered. I think what's special about Stevens is you can find your own little part of the mountain which is all yours, I have 4-5 little runs that cross between trails and off-piste that are all mine. Also the snow is crazy good, powder almost all the time. My favorite runs are Orion, some tree skiing near wall street, and right above the power lines. Stevens also has some pretty sweet out of bounds stuff to so check it out...

Bonney lake Is not trained. It is drained in the winter, who ever runs the dam doesn't man it in winter so they let it drain. There was talk that they would not fill it any more....Just heard that Bonnie Lake is drained in the winter and then refilled in the Spring. Can you tell me why?...
