Me and a buddy started hiking around 12:30 or so. We took our time and didn't rush to the top, I'd say we reached the summit around 3:30 or 3:45. Perfect view of Rainier and the Seattle skyline popping out of the fog in the distance. The trail was totally walkable and uncovered with snow until around the mile #3 marker. We had Yak Trax on after the snow and ice began, and they came in very handy! On the way back down it began to get dark quickly, so we needed headlamps/flashlights for the remaining mile or so down the hill. The temperature was suberb the whole hike, the temperature inversion made miles 2-3 really warm. The wind on the summit required a jacket, but it wasn't freezing. A great day on Mt. Si!

Dog Mountain

South Cascades

Head to Dog Mountain for Columbia River Gorge views and an explosion of wildflowers. Eager to get in shape for summer? Head straight up the mountain on the northern side. Take the slow and steady eastern flank trail to stop and smell the flowers. (See if you can spot recent work by WTA trail crews.)
