Blum Lakes are located in North Cascades National Park, in the U. S. state of Washington.[2] Consisting of approximately six cirque lakes immediately southwest of Mount Blum, the Blum Lakes are not near any maintained trails. Outflow from the lakes feeds into a tributary of Blum Creek. Nearby the Blum Basin Falls plunges 1,680 ft (510 m) along another tributary of Blum Creek.[3]
