Title: Tonga Ridge area Lake
Post by: Bullets_n_Octane on July 24, 2013, 12:56:07 PM: I used to fly fish on a lil mountian lake up in the hills high above Skykomish. Does anyone know if that area is still accessible? I was too young to remember the name of that lake. I know there are quite a few up in that area, and the road was crappy back then... but I figured ad ask...

We've been up there this year a couple times, the last time 2-3 weeks ago.
It's open and good to go.
