If you're up for an adventure try mailbox peak east of north bend. The hike is a real a-hole but as far as good training for hunting season and awesome views go it's a tough one to beat. Even this time of year on a sunny clear afternoon the snow up top is pretty easy to handle in just hiking boots.

Oh yikes, that one is definitely going on our to-do list (just looked it up).... That's one I'm gunna have to work up to though haha. Thanks for ideas

Boulder River is a great winter hike. Its out towards Darrington. Low elevation and the gain is not much. It shouldnt have any snow right now. Wallace Falls out of Gold Bar is good too. I can put some pics up when I get home.


Here are some pics. First 3 Boulder River, last 3 of Wallace Falls. Not the greatest but gives you an idea.

Another good hike is Fragrance Lake up north and Sauk River out of Darrington.

Heading out to Wallace Falls tomorrow morning!

Btw thanks for who ever recommended this hike for us, it was beautiful.
Tough though because of the constant inclines. Well worth every step!

Keep doing them, they will get less and less tough.

You should have went a little further to Wallace Lake.

Ahhh that's next time! The trail condition report was really bad, some storms had downed a lot of trees and something about a beaver dam causing flooding.. They allow back country camping and I wanna do that out there so bad!

Oh is there much fishing out there??

[Turner89]

Yea, you can see the fish jumping in that pic.  There is three lakes up there that all have fish in them.   I was about a half mile from there on saturday putting cameras out.
