August 4, 2001 Smithbrook Trail provides an easy access to Lake Janus, Lake Valhalla and Lichtenberg Mtn. The trail starts steep on the open slope and climbs for 0.3 mile untill it enters the forest. Almost immediately it crosses Henry Jackson Wilderness boundary and continues climbing for another 0.2 mile. The trail evens up, in about 0.1 it crosses a small creek then gets steeper and climbs for 0.3 miles to Pacific Crest Trail. |
