4 star climb with a 0 star descent!
A pleasant evening scramble on a very hot bluebird late spring day. Great views, great group!
Beautiful Evening for a hike. Still lots of snow on trail.
Three peaks loop - west, central and rarely visited southeast peak with a side trip to Debbie's View along a mostly forested route.
Fantastic, interesting, very scenic loop hike today on the north side of Mt. St. Helens!
Great beginner backpack trip along the rushing Greenwater River.
It was a beautiful and sunny day. Temperatures were in the 80s. When we arrived at the lake, there was only one or two other hikers present on the lunch rock. Everyone seemed to enjoy the hike.
A lovely close-in hike with way less people than nearby Mailbox. 2 of us did not change our boots for the stream crossings, 1 of us put on his water shoes.
The rumors of our death by brush are greatly exaggerated.
Overnight backpack on the North Fork Skokomish Trail.
Always a lovely trip! Stayed at Meadow Creek camp and Stehekin Lakeview Camp - was a great decision to get to Stehekin by night 2, as then we could have a leisurely walk to the bakery the next morning! But a few suggestions in the detail below.
We hiked up the South Coldwater trail and camped two nights at Ridge Camp. On the in between day we had spectacular day hiking up to the Boundary trail, Coldwater saddle and partially up Coldwater Peak.
Overnight trip for Backpacking students
Good conditioner with a nice view for dinner.
Successful instructional trip except for turning back a few hundred feet short of the summit. Except for some rain conditions were good for scramble travel.
This great, but long early season snow scramble had fantastic views (~5000’ gain and ~20 miles due to the locked logging road gate). Should remain a snow scramble for the next 4 weeks, then a hot-dry hike after that.
A beautiful day for the ascent, challenging weather on the descent.
