Cascade Lakes Scenic Byway
Green Lakes Trailhead, OR

This trail is one of several access points into the Three Sisters Wilderness area.

The Three Sisters Wilderness Area is really worth hiking into (no motorized vehicles allowed) because its 200,000 acres are covered with 111 lakes and miles of solitudinous trails. The area is also important to get into because the largest glacier in Oregon (Collier Glacier) is located in North Sister.

On this trail and other trails in Three Sisters, wildlife is running everywhere and can be seen in abundance along the trails. Most common on these trails are deer, the Golden-Mantled ground squirrel, and the noisy Clark's Nutcracker.
