To get to Clear Lake, you head west from Hwy 550 near Silverton along CR 7 that runs alongside the South Fork of Mineral Creek. That mountain ahead must be insignificant because it doesn't have a name on any of my maps.

East of Silverton, this is the Stony Pass road
|

The aptly named Green Mountain lies south of the Stony Pass road

The road on the far side of Stony Pass is in very good shape, not very steep and mostly smooth. I can make very good time here on my motorbike.

I'm headed to Kite Lake

The road crosses a stream ahead; I hope it's not very deep!

When it rains, it looks like a little stream runs down here to the lake.
