2/3 of the lake is gone. Kalama River now flows right thru the middle of what used to be the lake. It is amazing to see. The 8100 road is washed out at mile 11 so plan on a 2 mile walk.
Craig Nunnally:
McBride Lake is no longer in existance. Though I will have this confirmed on July 23, 2008. It is my understanding that during the 2007/2008 winter, a massive land slide occurred which filled the lake. McBride was once a great lake to catch and release fish throughout the day.

McBride Lake is nice enough to spend more than a day at, Cougar Park is a nice local campground, and in the event that you don’t have a problem getting covered with water, you can always go whitewater paddling on Siouxon Creek.
Now, you may assume that's a load but there's even more amusing stuff to do here in the Northern Cascade Range. Lakes are fine; Blue Lake is a lake that's close to McBride Lake, and Canyon Creek - Lewis River Tributary has a tremendous
whitewater paddling spot close by. All through the summer months, highs regularly are in the 70's at McBride Lake. When the night sets in temperatures drop down into the 50's. For the duration of the wintertime this place gets highs
in the 40's with winter lows in the 30's overnight here at McBride Lake. Don't leave McBride Lake without first paying a visit to Kalama Spring, and nearby Bedrock Pass is a good location to go.
McBride Lake sees pretty high levels
of rain; of all the months in a year December is the one with the most rain, and July is the month with the least moisture.
