If you get bored of Jug Lake, you could also explore close by Lower Jug Lake, and hiking along the Meadow Mountain Trail is delightful fun. Jug Lake gets a
 
               large amount of water; of all the months in a year November is the one with the most rain, and the driest month of the year is July.
This lake is so wonderful. Dry warm beds await you at Howard Johnson Snoqualmie/Summit, and there are some good whitewater spots on Illabot Creek. So much amusing stuff in the Northern Cascade Range, just striking. If you're here at Jug Lake, you could check out Arrow Creek, and East Side Buck Creek Campground is a wonderful local campground. The Northern Cascade Range scenery is always beautiful.

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....
