hike: Mount St. Helens – June Lake + Worm Flows

September 29, 2020

On this day hike to June Lake on the south side of Mount St. Helens, we planned to do a short loop on the Loowit Trail to Chocolate Falls and back to the lake. I didn’t know I’d end up scrambling on lava rock without a trail for over 1.5 miles.
