I'm taking some people up to Klone lakes 6/5 to 6/7 got room for a few more. This is one of the few lakes that the National forest service didn't log off and has largely been forgotten so its full of fish. Its about a 2 mile off trail / Bushwack with very little elevation gain or loss. PM if interested.

oh so your inviting thousands of peeps to a fragile area...oops...great the lakes will be fished out next year...please can u take it off the meet up sight...there are plenty of professional hikers to find here...
sounds like an area that doesnt need a bunch of trip reports also, or just invite some friends from here, ...yes suprise people are sensitive about great fishing lakes because soo many have been destroyed after fishing reports......or there are a dozen people there on the weekend, and trash....dingford creek is one that is getting more trash, as is builder-paer lake....

Hey Gnome I've been taking people to these lakes for 35 years very few people ever go back and they have always had healthy fish populations. Frankly i'm a little taken back by your tone you didn't have a problem about me posting on NW Hikers and inviting You.

Twister,
Weird timing, but a co-worker and I have been driving around the area the past couple of weekends looking for a way into the lakes. We are going back up on the 12th.
We were looking at going in from the lower abandoned road - the 700, but it appears most might be going from the 500.
Can you tell me the route you are going in?
Thanks!

Hey forest drone, You've obviously have never been to Klone Lakes. If you had, you would know that it is very difficult to reach. Also, there is already plenty of trash and leftover cooking utensils to spare. So, since this is not your "secret fishing hole" don't get so bent out of shape if an experienced outdoorsman offers to take a couple of newbies to a new place. He posted here to offer some of you "Professional" hikers an opportunity to get away from your computers for a couple of days... If you don't want to go or are physically unable to make it, please don't disparage others that might like to go with your superior smug attitude.

Hey Gnome apologies accepted, I share your concern about " Riff raff" spoiling a good thing, Spider lake and Satsop lake come to mind. But don't Blame me for publishing maps and trip reports, I've never done a trip report on Klone Lakes ( Hell its on You tube) and as far as maps go you could buy one of that area 120 years ago (how do you think I found it?) That being said I think the best way to Keep out " Riff raff" Is make it hard for them to get to ( Bad roads and an unmaintained trail} which is what klones has going for it. Anyway lets you me and McPuck do a hike sometime that be interesting.
