Hidden Lake is a rather wet place mostly with much precipitation; of all the months in a year December is the one with the most rain, and July is when it's the driest. You think that's sufficient? Just getting warmed up. Why not take a refreshing hike along the Sulphur
 
               Mountain Way, and get dripping wet paddling on Cascade River. The Northern Cascade Range scenery is always beautiful.
This lake is so wonderful. Mineral Park Campground is a brilliant campground nearby; it's a tremendous idea to pop by Barrett Creek. Man, is there a heap of cool things to do in the Northern Cascade Range. Hidden Lake is a perfect location to visit for more than one day, Newhalem Campground is a perfect location to camp nearby; Lake Chelan National Recreation Area is one of the destinations that are magnificent to visit close by. This lake is so wonderful.
There's nice hiking along the Hidden Lake Trail, and you obtain a good sight of Hidden Lake Peaks from here.

Cascade River
Did this section July 21, 2007 in a tandem canoe, at about 1850. Had never done this section before. The description above seems accurate. Several large log jams, some completely blocking the river, forcing us to take some long and rough portages through thick brush and over huge piles of logs. Even when the river is not blocked, there are serious strainers at every bend. You really have to be alert to avoid them. A lot of work and danger for the few fun class II rapids you get within the first mile or so. We spent nearly three hours on portages and scouting and only about one hour actually on the water. Not recommended....
