The trailhead for the Spider’s Meadow and Lyman Glacier hike is located near the end of the dusty Chiwawa River Road not far from Lake Wenatchee. The hike starts with a pretty gradually climb up the valley following Phelps Creek to Spider Meadows followed by a steep ascent to the Spider Glacier. The glacier is more of a snowfield late in the summer and was pretty simple navigation to get to the other side and hike down the other side to get a view of the awesome Lyman Glacier and the blue lake of freshly melted ice.
