Goode Ridge

Booker & Buckner from the Goode Ridge Lookout site.
A fine trail for those willing to climb to get to great views in a remote part of the North Cascades National Park. Best done as a side trip off an overnight trip from Rainy Pass to Stehekin, or something similar.

The trail switchbacks 5 miles up to the old Goode Ridge Lookout site from the Stehekin River. There is regular brush and blow down on the lower half of the trail but neither is a show-stopper. No bugs or other problems. The upper half is in open meadows with great views. The last spring water is at around 3300' elevation. This is a well designed and well built but little visited trail.
