A fun and rewarding overnight scramble. Cool temp kept the bugs away, and smokes from the cascades didn't really impact the air quality for us. We hiked in, camped, and had a leisure day on Friday (Day 1). We tagged The Brothers the next day. Routing finding, terrain management, and scrambling on loose scree were technical parts of the trip.
Wintry conditions for a short hike that still provides a workout.
We hit a great weather window for a ski trip up Amabilis. Great snow, great grooming and great group combined for a very pleasant outing.
4 of us enjoyed a snowy morning on Tiger, heading up Dwight/Preston to West Tiger 1 from High Point trailhead, and descending via Ruth's Cove. Three highlights included microspike malfunctions, amazing wind-snow sculptures at the summit, and a pileated woodpecker excavation site. Beautiful trip.
Completed a loop trip of West Tiger 2 & 3.
Youth ages 6-9 join us at the PC from 4:00pm - 6:00pm to climb, play group games, and create the occasional craft.
Three days of trips and surfing on the Pacific Coast.
A beautiful trip. We had so much fun, we did it twice.
Blue bird sky, chilly February air, hair ice, adult bald eagles were a few of our favorite things as we shared the Blue Loop at Tacoma's most awesome urban park on our Welcome to Hiking hike today.
Two of us enjoyed sunny, frigid conditions this morning on Tiger, starting from High Point and looping past Murat's Bridge, K3, and Ruth's Cove. While the plan was to see Tiger 1 and 2, our turnaround time for work meant cutting the loop short about 300' below both summits. Still a win in our books.
14 day immersion into the mountain, wetlands, beach, village, urban, farm, bird life, wild life and cultural life of Cuba
Mount Walker pre-game Super Bowl Sunday! The 6" or so of snow was well packed down by this Sunday. Donned Micro Spikes but could have gone on without them. Beautiful Day. More dogs than people on the trail today. Getting them exercised before the game, I'd imagine.
Cold temps, and three feet of recent snow made for the best sliding conditions you could hope for
Six-hour hike of Mailbox Peak in true Winter conditions.
Better than expected weather for an excellent “Introduction to Currents” class at Deception Pass.
Wintry conditions with sunny skies along sparkling S Fork Snoqualmie River to the cascades of several waterfalls
The trail was easy to follow, light snow and ice. Haystack was passible but dangerous, microspikes at minimum.
Snowshoe on 2/1/25 from Deer Creek to Big Four Rec Area. Great snow. Should have XC skied!
A very nice hike to a beautiful lake basin with golden larch trees just past their peak color. And for those that demand more, there is a steep and challenging (but not technical) bootpath, much of it through loose scree, up to the summit of Abernathy Peak.
