Seattle Junior MAC Hike - Ira Spring & Putrid Pete's Peak Trails

Join us and enjoy a beautiful Fall hike with early stunning views to Mason lake. We'll hike the Ira Spring Trail through second growth forest, over Bandera Ridge, and down to Mason Lake. (We won't continue on to Island and Rainbow Lakes, or Putrid Pete's peak trails. We'll leave that for another day.)
