     All through the summer months at Luna Lake temperatures are usually in the 70's. Once the sun is down it dips down to the 50's. The winter comes with highs in the 30's with temperatures at Luna Lake dipping down into the 30's during winter nights. A great spot to visit in the vicinity of Luna Lake is Picket Pass, and if you come at the right time of year, Skagit River offers some brilliant whitewater. And that's not everything there is to do here in the Northern  
   Cascade Range. Have a tremendous hiking adventure along the Hidden Lake Trail; a visit to Lake Chelan National Recreation Area is worthwhile.
This lake is so wonderful. So many cool things in the Northern Cascade Range, just striking. Take a hike on the Sourdough Lookout Trail, and whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if it's for you then, we recommend Stetattle Creek. So much cool stuff to do at Luna Lake, so little time. Luna Lake is right by
 
               the Pyramid Lake Trail, and Luna Lake is not the only place nearby, Eiley Lake is a nearby lake.
All the water falling down from the sky makes Luna Lake a wet spot; the month of December is the wettest with most of the rain; July on the other hand is the driest. Luna Lake is a beautiful lake in the Northern Cascade Range. This lake is so wonderful. Why not camp at Group Campground since you're here at Luna Lake; on a wonderful day you get a great panorama of Mount Fury from Luna Lake.
Goodell Campground is a nice local campground; if you've had enough of Luna Lake, Wiley Lake is nearby.

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....
