We’ve done this small 1.4 mile loop off of Little Si a number of times now, sometimes we add it on when we are coming down Little Si and sometimes when we are short on time this is the one we do. It is also part of the Old Trail for Mount Si - which… Continue reading Boulder Garden Loop – 26th September 2020

Wallace Falls – 8th August 2020
Wallace Falls - 08/14/20 Back in August I was finally ready to start hiking with A again, not only physically as she was now 6 months old and I had also been walking around our neighbourhood but also confident that we were safe to walk despite Covid-19 still being around. I knew that this hike… Continue reading Wallace Falls – 8th August 2020
Talus Loop 1/14/18
I love hiking, but sometimes I just don't love the getting ready, getting up early, heading out in the car etc. This sometimes means that although we plan to hike at the weekend, it can take a long time moving and therefore we lose the light especially in winter, or we need to find a… Continue reading Talus Loop 1/14/18
Poo Poo Point 01/01/2018
What a wonderful start to the year, a hike up a mountain. Tiger Mountain to be precise. I've never been up any of the hikes on Tiger Mountain, I know that Hubster has and this was lovely. So lovely in fact that I forgot to take any photographs except when we reach the two points… Continue reading Poo Poo Point 01/01/2018
Tulip Town and Clayton Beach 04/16/17
Sometimes it is easier to insert a map to show where we visit, especially as no one lives here with us! We drove up, towards the Canadian boarder over Easter. It was a sunny day *yay :)* and this place has been raved about since we moved here. I am really pleased we left so… Continue reading Tulip Town and Clayton Beach 04/16/17
Olallie Lake via Pratt Lake Trail
Oh wow to this hike! We went with Sausage and Igloo today, which is lovely to share hiking with them. Firstly we were all a little surprised at how much snow was at the start of this trail, I expected snow but not until a little further up. We started with our chains on our… Continue reading Olallie Lake via Pratt Lake Trail
Gold Creek Pond 03/20/17
I went on this hike with one lady - usual hiking buddy - and we hoped to meet the other one on the trail....which we did! Lovely to see her briefly too. Driving along the i90 towards Snoqualmie Pass we were able to see how much snow was still around. I knew that people were… Continue reading Gold Creek Pond 03/20/17
Bridle Trails 03/06/2017
Yesterday walking up Wallace Falls wore my legs out, so I did not go up Mount Si with the hiking ladies. Instead going round my local state park, I walked up there which took 40 minutes and met with one of the other hiking ladies and her friends. This meant I did not take many… Continue reading Bridle Trails 03/06/2017
Wallace Falls 03/05/2017
It has been a while since we've gone out with Igloo and Sausage but we managed it today. This is a hike I've done before but one which neither them nor Hubster has done. We really wanted to get out, but sometimes at the weekend we have a lazy time and struggle to stick with… Continue reading Wallace Falls 03/05/2017
Rattlesnake Ledge 15/01/2017
Brrr...not as cold as Franklin Falls, but it was still quite chilly! We went up with a friend of mine who doesn't get to hike with others very often. The recent trip reports on WTA mentioned that microspikes would be needed and I am so pleased we took ours. At times it was very very… Continue reading Rattlesnake Ledge 15/01/2017
