1584 Roaring Creek Directions: From Stevens Pass drive 15.3 miles east to USFS road 6840 (5.3 west from Coles Corner). If you are coming from Stevens Pass pay particular attention after going 1.2 miles past the White Pine Campground since the turnoff is easily passed. The road quickly forks but stay to the left and follow the road as it runs under and along the power lines before it curves up to the Lake Ethel trailhead in about .8 mile. Low-clearance passenger cars should approach this road with care. The Roaring Creek trail begins after hiking about 5.0 miles on the Gin Creek-Lake Ethel trail. Gregg Petrie ©2000 |
