SUMMARY:Sand Lake and Deer Lake via Sand Lake Trail (DH-2)
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\nTrip Name\nSand Lake and Deer Lake via Sand Lake Trail (DH-2)\n\n\nTrip Start Date\nJune 28, 2025\n\n\nType of Trip\nDay Hike\n\n\nRating\nDH-2\n\n\nLeader Name\nTerry Kneblik\n\n\nLeader Email\nt.kneblik@charter.net\n\n\nRoundtrip Drive Mileage\n260\n\n\nCarpooling Cost\n$31\n\n\nAdditional Fees\nNone\n\n\nTrailhead Name\nSand Lake Trailhead\n\n\nLongitude/Latitude\n46.64482191672868, -121.41895619012496\n\n\nTrip Description\nWe’ll sneak up on Sand Lake and Deer Lake via a less commonly used trail. The trailhead is located off FR-1284 (this forest road is a popular snowshoe area in winter). We’ll pass Cortright Point (at 5,765 elevation) enroute to Sand Lake. There is no trail to the top of Cortright Point, but hikers have been known to scramble the 200 feet to the top for good views. Perhaps some of us will?\nI have seen photos of wildflowers taken in late June/early July along this route so we might get lucky! Also, the stretch of trail between Sand Lake and Deer Lake is along the PCT so we may encounter a few hikers/backpackers. We’ll find a good lunch/break spot at one of the lakes or somewhere along the trail with Deer Lake being our turn around point.\nPHOTO CREDIT: AllTrails user Ryan Broom\n\n\nApproximate Mileage\n8 miles round trip\n\n\nElevation Gain\n1,000 – 1,300 feet\n\n\nDeparture Time\n7:00 AM\n\n\nSign up by\nJune 25, 2025\n\n\n\nEach participant is responsible for their own safety and being prepared. PLANNING ( https://www.nps.gov/orgs/1207/plan-like-a-park-ranger.htm ) and preparation start with the 10 ESSENTIALS ( https://imacnw.org/events/blue-mountain-trail-work-tw-2/#ten-essentials-popup ) and staying up-to-date on road and trail conditions, permit requirements, party size limits, snowpack, wildfires, and weather.  Visit the ACTIVITY CLASSIFICATION PAGE ( https://imacnw.org/events/blue-mountain-trail-work-tw-2/#activity-classification-popup )  for detailed information on difficulty rating for I-MAC trip so you can sign up for activities that best match your fitness and comfort levels.\nVisit TRIP COSTS & PASSES ( https://imacnw.org/events/blue-mountain-trail-work-tw-2/#trip-costs-passes-popup ) for detailed information about trip costs.\nTo help protect and care for these special places that we enjoy exploring, I-MAC members always practice LEAVE NO TRACE ( https://lnt.org/ ) and follow the 7 PRINCIPLES OF LEAVE NO TRACE ( https://lnt.org/why/7-principles/ ).
