     Goat Lake sees pretty high levels of rainfall; November is the wettest month with most rain, and the driest month of the year is July. There are great places to explore along the Osborne Mountain Trail, and camping is available at Mounthaven Resort. This lake is so wonderful. After a long day outdoors Econo Lodge Buckley is a perfect spot to spend a night or two, and Mount Beljica can be distinguished from Goat Lake.
This lake is so wonderful. Don't leave
 
   Goat Lake without first going for a hike along the Big Creek Trail, and going to Mount Rainier National Park is just something you need to do if you haven't yet. Throughout the months of summer at Goat Lake temperatures are regularly in the 70's. All through the dark hours of summer temperatures sink down into the 50's.

               could also stop at Kenworthy Lake while you're here at Goat Lake; it's close by, and a magnificent place for whitewater paddling is Silver Creek.
Just can't get enough of Goat Lake. Nearby lakes? Sure, Lake Christine is next to Goat Lake, and Beljica Meadows is a good place to check out. But wait, there's more to do near Goat Lake. Good hiking is available along the Paul Peak Trail, and if you need a location to stay Kings Valu Inn is a good choice.

Lake Christine
July 19, 2008-- We hiked up to Mt. Beljica this date. I would not recommend it just yet because of the unusually heavy snowfall last winter, unless you're very familiar with the trail. The entire trail is still snow covered from Lake Christine on up to the top of Mt. Beljica. We lost the trail, and then found it again.... that was a bit unnerving....
