MLHSN:
Any good suggestions for a 3-day backpacking route in the Pasayten?  I'm not planning on doing any serious scouting.  I just want to get some hiking and fishing in.  I've looked at a few routes which all seam to be about 4-7 day trips and doesn't work into my plan of relaxing for 3 days.  I'm thinking something around 20-25 mi.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.  The only potential trip I've looked at so far for 3-days would be a Buckskin-Freds/Doris, Ferguson loop.  I'm saving the Hiddens for a 4-day trip later.  Not really wanting to go to Crystal/Kidney with all the blowdown.

Thanks for any suggestions.

JackOfAllTrades:
I think its a great choice for "Buckskin-Freds/Doris, Ferguson loop". That will give opportunity for some lake and Robinson creek / Pasayten river fishing. There are good campsites on all of the Robinson/Buckskin trails. There is a very nice one halfway out from Holman if you venture west NW to Rock creek.  It's actually on the west fork of Pasayten. If you don't have a book/map of sites, I could probably give you GPS for that spot. If you come back out Buckskin, you've got Silver lake too.

How bad is the drive to Slate Pass?  I'm thinking about driving up from Chelan the night before and car camping at the trailhead.  I'm just not sure how the road is in the dark.

fillthefreezer:
its not bad mark. everyone talks that road up for some reason, but theres plenty out there that are worse. it is long though. budget an hour from mazama to slate peak.

MLHSN:
So I don't have to worry about driving off a cliff in the dark?
