Comments | This is a Mt. Jefferson Wilderness trail with elevations ranging from 3,100 feet at the trailhead to 3,890 feet at Pamelia Lake to approximately 4,200 feet where the Pacific Crest Trail crosses Milk Creek. The story here is rhododendrons -- only a few blossoms in the first mile from the trailhead, but a good number blooming at Pamelia Lake, at least on the lake's northwest corner. Also many blooming bunchberry flowers on the trail to the lake. Beyond the lake, closer to Milk Creek, some columbine, paintbrush, thimbleberry, bleeding heart, vanilla leaf and what appeared to be mountain strawberry. |
