Tiffany Mountain & Tiffany Lake

Okanogan County, Washington

Colville National Forest

Fees: none

Activity: hiking

Elevation: 6550'-8242'

Current status (as of 6/25/24): blooming

Notes: The Freezeout Ridge Trail is the shortest way to the top of Tiffany Mountain: about 2.2 miles one-way. The northern trail, from Tiffany Springs Campground, is much longer and sometimes difficult to navigate (especially east of Honeymoon Pass), but it has a lot more wildflowers. If possible, try arranging a shuttle from one trailhead to the other with two cars or a bicycle — and be sure to bring a GPS track and know how to use it.

Peak wildflower bloom on Tiffany Mountain & Tiffany Lake is typically from mid-June through the end of July, but there may be some flowers blooming from late May until late August.*
