Night time is the right time to enjoy great views and solitude at Gold Creek Pond!
Fun alternate winter route from Eightmile Lake. North face, western gully.
Lucked out again and had blue bird skies for the trip. The snow was great and thanks to the snow shoe people for packing down the snow so nicely that it was an easy go. Even on the trail to the Ice Caves. Not much longer for the snow though.
Blue bird day - Great 360' views. 8.5 hours round trip. Wet and heavy snow - with some icy patches in the lower elevations.
Fantastic Bluebird Day. Beautiful views of the Wild Sky Wilderness.
Some snow around the base, rock was nice dry and warm.
Beautiful day. We went from Annette lake Th and veered off the trail about 200 yards past the last switchback. Ascent was marked with deep trail breaking in snowshoes but the route was relatively easy -
Great weather. Terrific route. So-so ice.
A beautiful day to photograph the Ballard Farmer's Market and old buildings along historic Ballard Avenue.
I’m not sure why we had paddled so slowly…maybe it was the later than usual launch or we just wanted to prolong such an unexpectedly warm and pleasant March day to have a relaxing paddle! Photo credit: Laura Predmore
A beautiful sun-basking spring day with sweeping vistas to points NW and South. A great workout at just under 5000’ gain and ~10 miles total distance.
Lovely time had by all on this not-so-loveliest of days. Great walk along the shores of Lake Washington culminating in tasty Dim Sum at Jade Garden.
An after-hours conditioning hike in the snow. Very pleasant trip.
Combination photography and naturalist walk at the refuge. It was a bit chilly when we arrived, so layering was the way to go. I was also glad to have a pair of hand warmers in my jacket pockets.
Trail was closed about 1.5 miles in due to avalanche, good day all around anyway.
Beautiful day great conditions good time all around, I would come back again!
