     This lake is located in the wonderful Northern Cascade Range. All the outdoors exciting things in the Northern Cascade Range will keep you coming back time and again. American River has a good whitewater paddling spot close by, and Milk Pond is right by the Quartz Creek Trail. The high level of precipitation makes Milk Pond a rather wet location; January is the wettest month with most snow, and the driest of the months is July.
Through the warmest time of
 
   the year, highs usually are in the 60's at Milk Pond, and the night is a tad cooler of course, frequently in the 40's. All through the winter highs are typically in the 20's, and through the dark hours in the wintertime at Milk Pond temperatures plunge to the 10's. Milk Pond is right next door to Milk Pond Dam which is a beautiful location unquestionably worth visiting, and do take a hike on the Frost Mountain Lookout Trail.
Yeah, come up here to the Northern
 
               Cascade Range for a brilliant time. There are plenty of people from Ellensburg here at Milk Pond, and camping at Halfway Flat Campground I is always a nice experience. This lake is so wonderful. A quick journey to Pine Creek right next door to Milk Pond is a magnificent idea; paddling on Little Naches River is so much fun. Milk Pond is delightful enough to spend more than a day at, Halfway Flat Campground II is a delightful local campground, and since you're here, you could also take a look at pretty Shoestring Lake.
And that's not all you can do here at Milk Pond. After a long day outdoors Suncadia Resort is a great place to spend a night or two, and you'll stumble on a wonderful lake called Lily Pond Lake. This lake is so wonderful. If you need a place to stay Stewart Lodge is a tremendous choice, and the Kaner Flat Trail offers hiking at its best.

Wish Poosh Campground
13 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!...
