From September 11-13, 2016, Carol and I walked 22 miles in 3 days on an enjoyable backback to Mirror Lake in Eagle Cap Wilderness, Wallowa–Whitman National Forest, in the Wallowa Mountains, on the Columbia Plateau, northeastern Oregon, USA. (Its scenery resembles the Sierras.) Our route was as follows:
- Hike 7.3 miles from Two Pan Trailhead (5600 ft) up East Lostine River to camp at popular Mirror Lake (7606 ft).
- Day hike to Glacier Lake via Glacier Pass (6 miles round trip, 1200 ft gain).
- Backpack out 8.7 miles via Carper Pass, Minam Lake and West Fork Lostine.
