Yeah, come here to Oak Lake for a fine time. While you're here at Oak Lake, you could also take a look at stunning Shoe Lake; if you're going to from Shelton, you won't be the only one. Oak Lake is a wet place that gets lots of rain; most of the rain falls through December, and the driest month is July. Summer brings highs in the 70's to Oak Lake, and the nighttime is a bit cooler of course, usually in the 50's. Through the wintertime the highs are
 
               commonly in the 40's, and after the sun is down during the winter temperatures at Oak Lake drop into the 30's.
You absolutely have to love the Olympic Mountains. You'll need more than a day to explore everything Oak Lake has to offer, you can camp at Summertide Resort, and if you're interested in cool geologic traits try Capstan Rock. There's so much to do here at Oak Lake that you need to camp here for a while, Lake Trask Timber Trails Assn is a magnificent place for that, and if you need a location to stay Super 8 Motel - Shelton is a delightful choice.

Upper Elk Lake
It's been about 6yrs. since I was last at upper Elk Lake,It was my most favorite place to camp. If you were lucky, and got the only camp site on the lake,the lake was yours. The water was so crystal clear, you could almost see the bottom. The fishing was't bad either. There are plenty of trails and creeks to explore.Including Jefferson creek, which will lead you to lower Elk Lake. My children loved this spot as much as I. There was also a rope swing on the other side of the lake.It was heaven. My youngest daughter traveled back to the lake this summer (2008). She says the lake is destroyed, with water plants and logs,she says the water is no longer clear. This makes me sad, I may just have to plan a trip to see for myself....
