I wanted to hit up the four lakes up the Meadow Creek (near Lost lake) road that I hadnt been into yet. Sadly two of them arent on the map, so they werent on my Garmin GPS either. I tried to find them, but its a big forest out there. As it was I got into two of them. I had major surgery July 16th, so this is the first time Ive been out since. Brother Im out of shape. The first lake; Lilly Pad is a low level bugger. Still pretty though.

The second lake, Talus Slope is at 4400 so its nicer.
None of these lakes are named on the map. I have access to the Hi-Laker "Lake Finder" database where I found their names.

Thank you. A lot of lost lakes Im sure. The Meadow creek road is off of the Kachees exit and that lost lake it near the Cottonwood and Mirror lakes trailhead.

My first overnight backpacking trip with my dad, brother and cousin was to Lost Lake up the Mad River in the Entiat region.

Shouldn't be any. They're all "Found Lakes" now

Thank you. I hope to get more in the next two months. I hope we can get some good weather soon.

Nice exploration, BPJ. One of the I-90 areas where you can hike sans crowds.
