Hike Cady Ridge to PCT and Dishpan Gap. The hike will be a 16 mile loop with a gain of about 3,000 feet. Cady Ridge is in a class all by itself - a mile-high ridge dominated by the blue and purple hues of lupine, jaw-dropping views of dozens of peaks, and the snowy dominance of Glacier Peak. CHS hike led at a CHS 1 pace (1.5-2.0 mph)
