Wildflowers bloom profusely in Cameron Meadows during July and often
into August, and it is a good area for birds and deer. Here, also, are
the remains of an early settler’s cabin.
The trail is shaded by ponderosa pine and fir forest most of the way,
except for a short stretch at Cameron Meadows. From here it swings close
to the east fork of Grassy Creek and continues on to Snag Lake.
From Snag Lake Trail No. 27 continues on to Butte Lake.
