A beautiful scene with a man fishing from his one person pontoon boat on Trillium Lake near Mt. Hood in Oregon. Did you notice the kayaker on the right and the couple in the canoe on the left?
Trillium lake is popular for camping, fishing, non–motorized boating, and photography. It is unique in that there isn’t a creek or river flowing into it, but there is out of it. The lake was created by damming the headwaters of mud creek. Currently mud creek is the only outlet. This view is from the platform near the boat launch.
Take US 26 East from Portland and after Government Camp, look for the signs to Trillium Lake. This view is a very short walk from parking, 100 feet /30 meters or so. The road to the lake is past the one for Timberline Lodge. The road to the lodge goes up the mountain, the one to the lake heads down.
I would like to come back in the winter when the lake freezes over…
