It was a wonderful walk at night in Seattle. Peter, group leader, always shows us special sights and historical features which he has found when he researches the trips before we all go.
Excellent group made limited visibility and powdery snow a minor distraction
This was a pleasant opportunity to explore a new park in the City of Kent, including a scenic lake and some vestiges of earlier uses of the land. The trails are still in the process of development and wooden footbridges can be slippery when wet.
Despite the forecast for a day of rain, despite the rain falling at the meeting point, despite the rain falling at Longmire, we set out anyway. The rain promptly stopped and we had a nice ascent, until the rains returned with a vengeance and forced us to retreat just short of the summit.
A really nice paddle on a mild day with lots of wildlife activity.
7 of us snowshoed from Paradise Lodge up to Glacier Vista, toward Panorama Point and down past Myrtle Falls. Gained approx 1,100' - a route with varying terrain and views.
Great views of Mt Rainier’s Sunset Amphitheater before an afternoon arrival of the ‘wall of wet’.
Pleasant first snowshoe trip of the season, went about 1.5 miles into Edith Basin, had lunch and returned before it got wet.
Low, hard-packed snow made for easy walking with easy company
Dry cool weather and good visibility made for a great post-Thanksgiving urban hike.
Insufficient snow at Narada Falls and limited snow at Reflection Lakes. Diverted to Paradise, where snow was also not deep, but allowed us to complete a snowshoe trip.
A cool, dry post-Thanksgiving calorie burner through some of the less traveled portions of Tiger Mountain.
Turkey burn hike with a bit of snow, a bit of volcano, a bit of sun and no rain!
Easy trail with outgrown bushes but needs navigation skills for route finding due to the presence of many tracks/trails diverting from the main trail.
What a glorious day to enjoy the nature in West Seattle! We saw many seabirds from our vantage points along the shores of Puget Sound and had a beautiful walk in the temperate rainforest of Lincoln Park.
Started at lower falls hiked to upper falls. Detour around closed area. Intermittent snow on trail, muddy in spots. One large tree over trail requires a scramble over or around.
Paddled round trip from Owen Beach to Thea Foss waterway along the south shore of Commencement Bay.
An unexpectedly sunny day and pleasant company made this a five star conditioning trip.
