- Jade lake sits in a basin deep in the alpine lakes wilderness. It's unique blue color is created by glacial melt, and it is such a brilliant shade of blue you will think your eyes are playing tricks. While it is doable as a day hike be prepared, it's 20 miles and 4400 feet of gain, so it makes for a long grueling day. It took me 10 hours to complete and was worth every step. Final hike of the summer, fall is fast approaching in the alpine. Enjoy!

Looks like an amazing and beautiful hike.
Wow, this looks insanely gorgeous! Shots are stunning here!!!
Thank you!
Thanks for the great video! Pretty sure I met you up on Mt. Washington last year. Wish you luck with the channel.
That's awesome, and thank you, it's been a blast so far!
Awesome! Keep going! This is living a gorgeous life!
Great video! One of my top bucket list hikes to do in WA!
Davis Peak out there is a pretty wonderful trail with amazing views at the top
I'll add it to the list, sounds amazing!
Thank you for showing so much of the pass! Great info!
I do my best to show the hard parts
@@wanderingwashington I appreciate how hard that is to do from my own filming. Nice work :-)
6 hrs/day, 1 overnite = 24 miles
Great vid, this hike is on my to do list
it is for sure bucket list worthy!
Instagram come to life! So stunning, I wonder what makes the water so blue?
It's the result of certain minerals being ground by the glacier that dissolve into the water. It's amazing, each lake is different because of different proportions of the minerals. This lake just glows from that, it's hard to believe.
I really don't understand WHY it's called Jade Lake, when the color is torquoise?!?? 😉
Regarding your filming, do you have someone go with you, or are you setting up the camera, going back and filming, and then have to go back and get the camera again? That in & of itself would take a lot of time I would think??
Nice work! Diablo Lake, off of 20, is similar to Jade, but bigger, and shorter hike. 😉
You'd have to ask person ho named the lake lol
And yes I solo hike, so I set up the camera and go back for it. It actually doesn't take too long.
Diablo is a beautiful lake as well!
Wildlife is typically way more scared of humans than we are of them. It's exceptionally rare to even see a mountain lion. That being said I always carry bear spray, that's the best protection against wildlife@@curbozerboomer1773
10 hrs plus quality time? I'm assuming no bugs during fall?
Yup! Bugs in late summer are not very bad, didn't have any issues with them.
