Here’s another. Way over in NE Oregon. About an 8 hour drive from Portland to the trailhead. Best to go early and spend a night in Joseph or Enterprise.
This is Mirror Lake, Eagle Cap Wilderness. July, 2025. Just a few million mosquitos! Wear head net or go in August.

Looking south at Mt. Jefferson from the north, then looking from the south. Like two different mountains.
