     Lakes are such peaceful places, why not visit Jewel Lake right next door to Locket Lake, and if the weather is tremendous, you can go for a hike along the Escondido Trail. All year is a glorious time in the Northern Cascade Range if you go for the outdoors. After a long day outdoors Suncadia Resort is a fine site to spend a night or two, and there are other places here than Locket Lake, for example Tahl Lake. This lake is so wonderful. Since you're here at  
   Locket Lake why not explore Necklace Valley, and the best way to spend a winter day is on the slopes of nearby Snoqualmie.

               lake is located in the wonderful Northern Cascade Range. During the warm days of summer, highs frequently are in the 70's at Locket Lake, and during the night it cools down to the 50's. Highs throughout the wintertime are typically in the 40's with winter lows in the 30's overnight here at Locket Lake. Hit the slopes at Stephens Pass nearby, and Deception Creek is a good whitewater spot nearby.
So much amusing stuff to do here in the Northern Cascade Range, too tremendous to be true. If you came to camp Foss River Campground is a perfect place to do that, and the Cooper Pass Trail is a good hiking trail close by. Life's too short to enjoy all the entertaining things in the neighborhood of Locket Lake. Bald Eagle Peak is a peak you can distinguish from Locket Lake; Locket Lake is glorious enough to spend more than a day at, Deception Creek Campground is a glorious local campground.

Bonnie Lake
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?...

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...

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...

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....

This ''Lake'' Is Beautiful. It really isn't a lake at all, in the summer it is a widening of the river. Very slow moving river, more like a slough, it is very clean, clear, and cold, mountain runoff. The fishing is excellent from a small boat or float tube, although the current can be somewhat strong. I fly fished, using a #14 Adams, and caught 11 rainbow and cutthroat trout between 6 & 11'', in the early to mid evening. This was in July of 2008. Camping was good, small sites along the main road. Keep your food in the cars though as Bears are definitely out....

Wish Poosh Campground
18 miles away
We overnighted at this campsite a couple of weekends ago. The camp hosts were wonderful, they were informative and kept the grounds and the bathrooms spic-n-span clean. They were always in their golf cart putting around taking care of this or that. They scolded us for staying the night in a place we weren't supposed to, and I felt bad about that because I knew we shouldn't have stayed there but my partner insisted and it was his birthday. I knew they were just keeping order at the campground they were in charge of, and I appreciated that. Keep up the good work!...
