Hidden Lake Lookout (Day Hiking in Washington)
What an amazing and gorgeous journey and destination. When we reached the open hillside and began climbing knobs, knolls, and rock slabs, the lyrics of the Gospel hymn “Heavenly Sunlight” echoed in our minds as we basked in the morning sunshine and marveled at the panoramic views.
🎶_"Walking in sunlight all of my journey,
Over the mountains, through the deep vale;
Jesus has said, I’ll never forsake thee-
Promise divine that never can fail.
In the bright sunlight, ever rejoicing,
Pressing my way to mansions above;
Singing His praises, gladly I’m walking,
Walking in sunlight, sunlight of love.
Heavenly sunlight! Heavenly sunlight!
Flooding my soul with glory divine;
Hallelujah! I am rejoicing,
Singing His praises, Jesus is mine!"

So do not set up rivals to Allah, knowingly. Qur’an 2:22

    Amazing people are finally starting to figure out this beautiful place is merely pockets of survival of Majestic building ruins. There's so much more "megalithic wall" and arched brick tunnel above and below the trails it could really frighten those who first realize what they're looking at. I plan on hiking it more next weekend😊😊

      We did get off trail a few times by following some misplaced flagging. It was a challenge to stay on trail in places. But coming back was much easier, only missed one turn! The lowest lake is an interesting area we will probably return to some time.

I do name the location if the area we visit is in guide books or is an established location with maintained trailheads, adequate parking, outhouses, or other features that accommodate more people. With a little sleuthing, a viewer will be able to identify this location from the land features.

    Ermygersh!!! We were totally there at the same time! (6th - 8th tho…) I have to admit I’m still kind of emotional. We had so much fun and peace there. Anyways, for next time: there is a trail behind the golden west visitor center. It’s called the “imus” loop. If you go up to the first bridge, there is a little path that goes back into the vegetation and you can see the very peaceful imus falls. Then, if you go all the way up to the end of the road, you can see the glorious car wash falls! (That being said tho, you do have to make a bit of a sketchy step over a giant gouge that got pounded into the rock by a flash flood to get there.) in my opinion? Best place to cool off in some water. Just standing under those falls. The water isn’t frigid and the falls themselves are just beautiful. Thank you for sharing this video. I really really miss that place already.

    So this is not the top of Black Mountain? Rather a knob? I see on topographic maps that Black Mountain is apparently about 4400 feet above sea level. I wonder if there’s a way to get up to that

    • @Romans1verse20
      @Romans1verse20 6 місяців тому

      Correct, this was only part way up Black Mountain. We could see the top (or at least the false summit). Logging roads appeared to continue up the hillside and it looked like it would be many more miles to reach the actual summit. There is a geocache near the top with maps providing details on how to reach the summit (look up "Black Mountain Traditional Geocache GC52JC8"). It looks like it is about 15 miles round-trip.
