No snow remains on trail - very well maintained trail system. Be sure to have map, as junctions can be confusing.
Spring is still at an early stage on the north side of Umtanum Ridge.
A great close to home conditioning hike for Kitsap Basic and Intermediate Mountaineering students and graduates, though all are welcome.
If you don't mind sitting in after-work traffic on i-90 and love a *VERY* well-maintained trail, this hike is for you! Bonus points if you do it in the rain, you won't see a soul!
Successful early spring climb of Eldorado via Inspiration Glacier
Successful summit with favorable conditions (aside from some post holing).
Majestic winter views of Willis Wall on Mount Rainier. A fitting reward after some classic NW rainforest cross country travel on this ~3700’/9 mile trip.
Gorgeous blue sky morning, good snow conditions, and great companions made our visit to Sugarloaf and McClure Rock very enjoyable!
Great day hiking, views limited due to haze.
The kick-off raft-up was a great start to the sailing season.
Overnight climb of Leuthold Couloir.
Nice little jaunt on a Saturday morning!
