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

Gold Creek Pond 03/22/16
I finally had the opportunity to use my snow shoes which we brought from Costco before Christmas. This was not the original plan, but because I managed to hurt my thigh yesterday by slipping on the Ira Springs Trail I asked to go somewhere nearer. I was the driver too, and couldn't face driving almost… Continue reading Gold Creek Pond 03/22/16
The Talus Loop 02/20/16
A small afternoon hike with Sausage and Igloo as well as Hubster. I choose this one! I was pleasantly surprised at how nice it was and will do this one again, I reckon it would be suitable for a trail run during the week. I would feel confident doing this hike alone. Talus Loop Trail… Continue reading The Talus Loop 02/20/16
Wallace Falls 2/16/16
Two hikes this week 🙂 Off to another falls today, a later start and I'm carpooling with another lady so am meeting in a carpark at 8:30am. This is another hike which will not take all day, and I'm enjoying having the rest of my afternoon to do something else. Sleep, eat....crochet a baby blanket… Continue reading Wallace Falls 2/16/16
Teneriffe Falls 2/15/16
6am my alarm went off! 6am! I couldn't believe it. Up before Hubster, and actually up. Today he is off to Steven's Pass for a day on his board with Beardy on his skis. It was a rainy morning which continued into a rainy day, but what a good morning it was! I really enjoyed… Continue reading Teneriffe Falls 2/15/16
West Summit Snoqualmie 12/30/15
Bam! Snowboards are out, and we are ready! It took less than an hour from ours to West Summit. We went along the I-90 and took my baby girl for a spin to the mountains. She did brilliantly...didn't get to try out her out in snow mode as the roads were clear the entire way… Continue reading West Summit Snoqualmie 12/30/15
Beckler Peak 11/28/15
I am so pleased that this hike worked out well, and that we managed to reach the peak. The views were spectacular, and the trail was almost empty the whole time. This weekend it was myself, Hubster and H. Thankfully....there was no chance for our car to reach Jennifer Dunn Trailhead, we needed H's 4wd… Continue reading Beckler Peak 11/28/15
