Trail Overview

This route takes you to two small lakes in the forest of the Willapa Hills. There is a steady and gradual incline until you level out at the top, where the lakes are. The road is mostly gravel mixed with some dirt, and there are several deep potholes that were full of water, as well as washboard sections on the trail itself. This trail is easily driven in a 4x4 vehicle, and should be able to be completed by any vehicle type. Snag Lake is a little smaller than Western Lake, but both have vault toilet restrooms and parking for 3 to 5 cars. Each lake has a campground for tent camping at the lake, and there are several pull-outs and wide areas in which you can car camp. There were signs at the campgrounds stating a "Discover Pass" is required, as this is State of Washington-owned land.
