A great evening hike in a dense second growth forest with a view of Lake Sammamish.
Snow scramble up Double Peak from Deer Creek trailhead.
Surprisingly good weather and good snow conditions, a scenic route for such a short scramble
A successful climb after a change of venue during a short window between spells of rain and cold - dry trail and hard snow on approach, dry rock and mild weather during the climb.
Enjoyable scramble of a peak which is not done often.
Solid Glacier travel with minimal crevasse openings at this point in the season.
Two pitch alpine rock climb with an airy move at the top, which calls for a blue tricam. Variable weather and lots of loose rock in the gully.
a moderate double peak scramble. it was entirely snow free.
Sunshine with snow flurries made for a fun day out in the Teanaway
Successful hike up to B-17 wreckage on a quite cool day. Rhodies were in bloom and the group was impressed with the wreckage. Trail is in good condition.
There was minimal amount of snow. Only one person used his ice axe, because he varied off the route slightly from the rest of the group.
A brisk morning sail from Kingston to Edmonds.
Great views of Deception Pass and the Straits. A great early trip when the mountains are still snowed in.
Route conditions, weather, and group-fitness all played a role in providing an insufficient level of suffering.
Found a sunhole all day and great views of the Stuart range and Cashmere
The trail is well maintained, very little brush. Some exposed roots. Beautiful view of Baring Mountain. Lots of camp sites.
Overnight scramble via Williams Creek
The trail is in good condition. forecast said rain, but we had a sunny and dry hike.
