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!
A solid winter scramble that belies its mundane name.
Nice loop trip for fit snowshoers, though no views of Rainier today. You are unlikely to encounter anyone else on most of this loop.
