Mount Ingalls North, South and East Peaks
Chose this hike for our 25th anniversary, as Ingalls Lake was our first backpack trip 35 years ago. The hike to the Lake is a popular classic. The scramble of the South Peak is reasonably easy, while the North Peak, which is 20 feet higher, is a technical climb.
Conditions were great, with no steep snow or ice axes needed. There is a slight chance of rockfall, and we wore helmets. Perfect weather, no bugs, and great views. We ended the climb with a refreshing swim in Lake Ingalls.
A great dinner and night spent at Sleeping Lady resort in Leavenworth finished off a perfect day.
