Description

The Herman Creek Trailhead is the starting point for two different routes to Wahtum Lake. The two routes divide here. One route uses the Herman Creek Trail almost all of the way to the lake. The second route leaves the Herman Creek Trail here, follows the Herman Bridge Trail across Herman Creek and then the Pacific Crest Trail to Wahtum Lake. These two trails figure heavily in many other area hikes, as well.
