Seven Lakes Basin

Seven Lakes Basin is a basin in Olympic National Park. Despite the name, Seven Lakes Basin, there are actually eight small lakes in the area. The lakes are Soleduck, Long, Lunch, Morgenroth, No Name, Clear, Round, and Lake No. 8. The largest of these lakes is Soleduck and the smallest is Morgenroth. Other lakes are encountered along the way which are not considered part of Seven Lakes Basin. These lakes are Heart Lake and Deer Lake. Heart Lake gets its name from its very distinct heart like shape. Black Bear and Olympic Elk are common in this area, especially when the blueberries are in full bloom.
