About
Within Walupt Lake Campground [http://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/giffordpinchot/recreation/recarea/?recid=31460].
The Lake has a primitive boat ramp and day use area great for swimming and hanging out a hot summer day. Mosquitos can be a problem early in the season. There are numerous trails nearby. Walupt Lake Trail # 101 [http://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/giffordpinchot/recarea/?recid=31462] goes along the northern edge of the lake and is an easy hike to the end of the lake. The Nanny Ridge Trail # 98 [http://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/giffordpinchot/recarea/?recid=31364] climbs steeply but offers great views of the Goat Rocks Wilderness. Be sure to fill out a Wilderness Permit before entering the Wilderness.
