I-90 Summits
11 April, 2018Yeah, yeah I know seattle has a huge diversity of hiking areas but sometimes you need to crank one out and get back for your kids bath time. So hooray for I-90
- Mt Si
Ah the classic. Lunch on the rocks. Maker sure you do the haystack.
- Mt Teneriffe
Actually a better view than sigh and pretty much same drive. Hike is a bit longer and lass woods is a bit chewed up.
- Rattlesnake ledge
Take your grandparents it’s fast. I really need to go up to east peak or the 10 miles to snoqualmie pt.
- Mailbox Peak
New trail isn’t the crazy mudcliff the old one was. More like si but 30% harder. 40% better views.
- Mt Washington
Almost secret entrance east of twin falls. Steep gravely trail. Cool tree hallways. Really wanted to cedar morse lake view but got fog.
- McClellan’s Butte
quite the slog but rock scramble is phenominal. Also rare summit south of i90.
Meadow scramble but more of a ridge than a summit. Still great flowers and rainer.
- Mt Defiance.
Secretly great. Left on bandera past mason lake and keep going. View from away from the highway.
- Granite Mt.
Been 8 years need to go back. Love the alpine meandos and I’m a sucker for a lookout
- Kendall Katwalk Love this hike. Start of of the PCT. Pretty long but once it gets pretty it just stays that way for miles.
- Mt. Catherine
Took a six month old up includin the 9 foot rock scramble with a chain at the top. Great view of rainer but also bugs a the top.
