Great fall trip - Nimbus scramble but not Thunder due to severe change in weather for the worse! Lake was very pretty and commanding 360’ Mountain View’s!
Turned around due to snow/ice.
Is it worth carrying a tool that weighs as much as three Pulaskis? Read this story of the Olympia Branch's trip to Church Creek Trail on National Public Lands Day to find out.
A complex and engaging intermediate climb near Washington Pass.
A leisurely 6 day backpacking trip on the Northern Loop, clockwise from Sunrise.
Lovely urban walk through historic Pioneer Square, Pike Place Market, and Olympic Scupture Park. Lots of art to enjoy. Second half provides sweeping views along water front ending at Magnolia neighborhood center makes this a lovely walk for locals and visitors to enjoy various views of Seattle.
An easy walk up off trail hike precursor to a protected scramble the Choss Monster and Baby Choss Monster,
Fun long ridge run with only mild scrambling to a peak with great views into the depths of the Pasayten,
Two good scrambles wrapped up in one beautiful day, with solid rock and obvious gulleys.
Beautifull approach, challenging gullies to an enjoyable 2 pitch climb
Interesting close to home scramble not often done. Be prepared to use the existing rope that's located near Dirty Harry's Peak. Shuttle needed.
A great one day basic glacier climb in a stunning setting, complete with ice calving on the nearby Willis Wall. A long (and strenuous) day, made a bit longer with the shorter days, yet compensated by our solitary time above Observation Rock.
Beautiful fall day out scrambling with the youth programs, Jr Mac and Explorers.
One of the finest fall scrambles around! Word has gotten out, and it is getting popular.
Late summer ascent of Breccia Peak via Lost Creek Ridge Trail
This trip was supposed to be a Diablo Lake weekend but current forest fires and bad air quality in both Ruby Hill and Baker Lake caused a switch to clear and easily accessible Blake Island. We may not have had mountain views but beautiful Blake Island never disappoints!
Such beautiful views of the Enchantments and a great workout - it is a shame this scramble doesn't get done more often!
A Sea Kayak trip to the remote north side of the Brooks Peninsula on Vancouver island. We had 7 great days of paddling in rough weather and beautiful conditions.
Sometimes you get epic views, sometimes... you just get well.... nothing. Successful summits but completely fogged in today.
