Snow receding on the ridge near the beacon, perfect for snow lillys
Trying to avoid the showers and grey, we escaped East for an early Fathers day hike. We decided to try Kachess Ridge after reading Janice's excellent report from last week, see:

The wildflowers are spectacular. See photos below for the subtle turn off to the ridge route It is steep, but easy to follow and decorated all the way up with flowers. The Silver Creek fork of the trail is still choked with snow.
