The rain was coming down, but we headed to Port Angeles, hoping for sunshine. We were surprised to find the Hurricane Ridge Road closed, so it looked like a perfect time to check out Lake Angeles.

| Always nice to have a good sign at the trailhead |
 |
| It was drippy wet at the beginning of the hike |
 |
| This pretty bridge could be anywhere in the Olympics National Park |
 |
| Ditto for this bridge, which was slippery with slush |
 |
| The precipitation got whiter as we gained elevation |
 |
| First peek at the lake |
 |
| Walking in the snow around the lake |
 |
| Nice view of Lake Angeles |
 |
| Going around the lake, looking for a lunch spot |
 |
| Walking back down to the shore |
 |
| A view from our lunch spot. |
 |
| Yes, it was just as cold as it looks. |
We were happy to hurry back down the trail, generating some body heat.
