View larger size in new window I see now the ponds I was talking about visiting are up a side stream from Crazy Creek. They are in the upper right of the above map.

Oh yeah, I see. Looks like it might be tough to get there. Would you go out the Mt Hopper Way Trail then traverse over or along Hopper to get there?

I don't have a good pic posted on Flikr to show, but it would be over the hill on the left of this pic I think.

I was thinking of trying to follow the ridge over to the ponds from First Divide.

[Eaglecadd]

I see on Google Earth where you are talking about. Looks pretty freakin' steep over those ridges. Let me know if you get there with some pics. I'm always looking for new adventures.

I am a several years older than you so I may not make it there but if I do I will post some pictures. I think Larry on this website has been there but I don't know what route he took.

I am revising (again) my book, Olympic Mountains Fishing Guide and going to color in this edition. At 77, i'm not able to make the kinds of trips you made- i am envious, to say the least. But I am looking for some photos. Yours do not have captions and though I recognize some of the ponds and lakes, I can't be sure. If you are willing, I am looking for: photos of Hagen Lakes any fish information you might have for Hagen, Scout, Stone Ponds - even if you didn't fish, there may have been fish rising or visible. Even that would help me. thanks Dave Shorett
