Lying beneath the northern cliffs of Mount Pilchuck, Heather Lake is a very popular destination. For the first half mile, the trail follows an old logging road and from there climbs gently to Heather Lake. Remember to camp at least 100 feet from the lake.

Directions: From Verlot travel east on the Mountain Loop Highway I mile and turn right onto the Pilchuck Road #42 and continue 1.5 miles to the trailhead on your left, parking on your right.
