Upper Ruffey Lake panorama (California – June 2025)

The hike to this lake is a nice day trip from Ashland. About an hour and a half drive south of Ashland, you’ll want to start at the “Pacific Crest Trail – Etna Summit trailhead”. If 4+ miles isn’t enough for you, there are several longer options including summiting Etna Mountain (the far left peak–mostly hidden by trees in the foreground–in this photo), Smith Lake, and/or Meeks Meadow Lake.
