10 miles of hiking • 1750' elevation gain • 2 nights
On our way up to Michel's Cabin for Labor Day Weekend, a few of us decided to make a day hike up to Lake Stuart. I am not much of a Lake Hiker, so of course I had an alternate plan to climb a nearby peak if time allowed. Axis Peak is short scramble from the lake and would have provided some nice views of the Enchantments range. But it was not meant to be, we got a late start that morning and ended up just taking our time and enjoyed the company of good friends. Later that day we all headed up to the Cabin and enjoyed 2 nights of camping. There were many activities and lots of drinking !!! A great holiday weekend and a great end to the PNW Summer.
