Rattlesnake Lake is one of the beautiful lakes we have here in the Pacific Northwest. The lake offers a day use recreation area with a boat launch, beach, picnic tables, walking trails, swimming and a hiking trail. At the very top of this mountain there is a beautiful ledge overlooking the lake and its views are astounding. This trail is perfect for our upcoming beautiful summer weather.
