Great trip with multiple objectives. Advised for stronger groups which can do it in 8-9 hours round trip. Or liesurely groups to do it in 11-12 hours. Great area to take the time to tag all three.

Nice and sternuous trip recommended for fit parties. Beautiful meadows, thick vegetation and bugs didnt deter us from bagging 5 official peaks and 3 sub peaks along the way. Could save time and energy if done a key exchange from carbon river trail

While there were clouds and showers to the west of us, we climbed Skookum (aka The Louvre) in sunny weather. We did have some wind, but that was good because it kept the bugs away.

Great group on a nice summer evening hike on Little Si. Saw lots of beautiful ferns, climbers on rock, and reached the summit during the golden hour.
3 hours from car to car.
One member was unlucky and got stung by a wasp near the summit through their sock.
All in all it was a pleasant short hike after work.

Are you a burgeoning trad leader looking to gloss over trip reports and beta while at the same time, looking to make the jump from 3ish pitches up SEWS or the Tooth into double digit leads with little preparation?! Do you like loose rock, choss, and dirty gullies?! Then have I got the climb for you!

Most of the snow along the Burroughs trail is gone. A couple of lengthy patches remain with a good boot track, go slow, wear lug-soled boots, use poles.

Klickatat (Mt. Adams) greets you at Sunrise Lookout, but Tahoma (Mt. Rainier) dominates the sky when you travel to the summit of Skyscraper Mountain!

Wild flowers are at the start of their bloom. There is a new bridge installed from Summerland to Panhandle Gap. Hooray!
