From a rocky viewpoint at 5,450 ft, the southern shore and sandy beach of Wallowa Lake are framed by the sweeping expanse of the East Moraine as its dense conifer forest transitions into golden bunchgrass slopes.

Framed by mature ponderosa pines at 5,800 ft, the trail looks northeast across the central expanse of Wallowa Lake, where patches of morning sunlight illuminate the East Moraine.
Traversing a lower talus slope on the descent, the trail gazes directly south into the dramatic, U-shaped glacial canyon of the West Fork Wallowa River.
