Marmot Lake and Jade Lake

There is a gorgeous and difficult hike that may need off- trail hiking, steep inclines and multiple river crossing. You want to be prepared to pass through the snow even in the summer. In the summer a thin surface layer of snow and nothing beneath is caused by a fall through snow. You fall through the snow, and either hit the ground or find a stream. The trail is not easy to see. It will be difficult to reach Jade Lake. The directions should be found on the map. It's better to bring chalk and flagger tape if you are trekking in the snow. Think about what you will do if you can't sleep. It's required by the Northwest Forest Pass.
