Stiletto Lake
Backraft Score: 8/10
Bryan and I decided to sneak up to this lake from the back side (via Twisp) which may have saved a little bit of hiking. Turns out it’s a very popular lake, so our first night was only a brief reprieve from the Seattle crowds. That said, there were no crowds on the water, which was very blue and particularly frigid — which nearly caused us to capsize when we crossed the middle of the lake and lost our air pressure! Super fun time with a good friend.
