    Ross lake is part of Canada and United states, surrounded by mountains it is part of Skagit valley provincial park of BC. 90% of the lake is in WA.US. access from Canada is only through Hope, BC., through an unpaved road. Enrouite there is also a nice small Silver lake on our right and road goes along shallow river. Road ends at lake and also goes little bit into US territory, there is a presence of US government. Camp sites are available, fire pits are available. Lake has clear waters, swmming, kayaking and other water sports can be done with safety in mind.

    Been camping on Ross lake for the past 4 years over labor day. It's the one trip I look forward to every year. The scenery is beautiful, and the camp spots are always maintained.

    Absolutely love this area. I cannot wait to go back for so many reasons. Between the hikes and the lakes and the campgrounds, this area is a true Alpine paradise. You can find reservations and more information at the recreation.gov address. I almost don't want to let others know about this gem of the northwest. Sad to see some occasional littering. Wish people packed it in and packed it out like they ought to. Water is cold because it's fed by glaciers. No motorized boats are allowed on Diablo Lake, but kayaks are.

    Gorge Lake Park is an Interesting place, lovely gardens juxtaposed with industrial buildings. Good interpretive visitors center. Trail to falls is blocked at the top. Signage could be better.

    Very quiet with large wooded camp sites.
    Trails to the river and Gorge dam we're fun to go on and well maintained. Will visit again!

    Awesome place. Make sure you go to ladder falls at night. It's all lit up. Diablo lake is beautiful. We stayed at gorge campsite. It's right on the river, and it's free.

    Loved the area. Too bad it only has a few short HC Accessible Trails. We were told about one by a Volunteer at the Ranger Station and she was correct, well worth the trip.

    We got lucky with great weather. Gorgeous views but that water was cold. I got about ankle deep and decided a beer sounded like more fun.

    A wonderful place to explore and soak in the mountains of the northern Cascades in Washington! I found it in excellent place for both landscape photography as well as amazing hikes in the woods and mountains. Given I was there in mid June, I can't be sure of what it's like during the height of the summer months, but it is well worth the visit! Other than camping, there is no lodging within the national park or nearby recreation areas, other than a few spots Ross Lake resort. Otherwise you'll have to find lodging outside the national park and rec area in nearby towns.

    Went backpacking here and it's great! Trails were fairly flat and mostly maintained with a few fallen trees across the path that the rangers haven't cleared yet. The camp sites were really nice with fire rings and outhouses.
