This
is a part of the old PCT route that went from the Snoqualmie Pass
near Snow Lake to Middle Fork Snoqualmie River and was used for
stock. At times the trail is brushy and has blow-downs. The trail
steeply climbs through the woods for about 4 miles reaches to a
T junction near the Snow Lake  .
The right fork leads to High
Lakes Trail #1012, and the left fork is Snow
Lake Trail #1013.
