Description
This trail originates on Road 24 and passes through a second-growth forest. The trail then climbs to the ridge line, enters the wilderness, and intersects with Trail No. 102. Passing Lake Wapiki Trail No. 34A, the trail climbs steeply to open meadow slopes, providing excellent views of the lake and Lemei Rock before descending to Trail No. 33 near Cultus Lake.
Includes views of Mounts Adams, Rainier, St. Helens, and Hood, along with views of Lemei Rock, a 5,925-foot promontory that juts 500 feet above Lake Wapiki. Lemei Rock is the highest point in Indian Heaven Wilderness. Lemei Rock is the core of an old volcano. Its crater forms the basin for Lake Wapiki.
