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

Oyster Dome 04/01/16
This was my last hike before I headed back to the UK. Oyster Dome. Somewhere I had not heard of, nor knew where it was. This was just under 2 hours drive, and we all drove in one car. Hubster dropped me off at one of the Park and Rides, partly because I didn't know… Continue reading Oyster Dome 04/01/16
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
Ira Springs Trail 03/21/16
So I hiked this with my two hiking buddies from the Ladies Hiking Group, we were aware of the low avalanche warning and for me I certainly feel comfortable speaking to the others if I feel like I can't or shouldn't continue on a route. This trail proved this, and also that we hike similarly… Continue reading Ira Springs Trail 03/21/16
Licorice Fern Trail 03/05/16
An afternoon hike for me and Hubster today. I saw this hike posted on the Ladies Group but on a day when I would be unable to join them, but it looked like a nice one so I nabbed it! Licorice Fern Trail is about 4.5 miles long, with not a huge elevation so was… Continue reading Licorice Fern Trail 03/05/16
Mount Si Old Trail 02/29/16
The ladies I hiked with, minus one who needed to head back down. Next time! I knew this would be a hard hike, it is steep and long, plus I need to carry my own pack. There are some reasons why I married Hubster :-p This was another Ladies Group Hike, and I really can… Continue reading Mount Si Old Trail 02/29/16
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
Little Si 1/22/16
Sometimes I find myself wanting to go out hiking but not knowing the areas nearby well enough, and not wanting to go solo I was at a loss of what to do. Weekends do not always work out well, and other times the weather might be poor. I have 3 days during the week I find… Continue reading Little Si 1/22/16
Dirty Harry’s Balcony 10-11-15
Choosing where to go on any given day whether it is a hike, shopping, or a mooch around is a hard thing to do between us! Someone needs to take the lead and neither of do. Today though, we agreed on Dirty Harry's Balcony. Washington Trails Association is a really useful website for planning trips… Continue reading Dirty Harry’s Balcony 10-11-15
