Whole trees have been felled over this path to decommission it. Cross an old logging road, and then bend sharp left to rise steeply and intersect the old tread which came up from the U.S. The trail undulates along, passing over more bridges, and soon crosses Mirror Lake Creek. Rhododendrons enter the understory, and you'll see springboard notches on rotting stumps. Rise gradually to cross more footbridges over trickling creeks that feed small bogs below. The next bridge crosses the creek that drains the Comerford Lakes. Cross two footbridges over seasonally dry gullies. Before Camp Creek, a pole-and-rail barrier prevents shortcutting at a switchback.Īfter Camp Creek, you're on a wide duff trail. You're in a secondary forest of Douglas-fir, western hemlock, silver fir, noble fir, and western red-cedar. Six winding switchbacks descend to a wide footbridge over Camp Creek, where the paved section ends.

Just a 20-minute drive will bring you to downtown Houston, where there is an extensive variety of shopping, dining, entertainment, arts, culture, sports, and other amenities.The Mirror Lake Trail has the misfortune of being one of the few hikes accessible directly from Highway 26 and thus suffers a crush of visitors on weekends.
