Hike: Castle Pass
Region: North Cascades
Trails: Castle Pass (#749)
Avg Rating: 2.50

Weather was good, scenery was excellent. A few patches of snow remained. Now the bad news - this trail has not received routine brush-back maintenance for many years, and the avalance chutes are difficult to navigate. The blow down from last winter has not been cut, leaving some sections of the trail (lower parts of Three Fools Creek) an extremely difficult scramble. Recommended only for strong, experienced hikers.

Red Top Lookout

Snoqualmie Pass

Whether you're camping near Cle Elum or just want a prime picnic location for a short Saturday hike, you'll only have to climb a mile on this steep, easy-to-follow trail to get stunning views from a fire lookout (and cool alpine outhouse). It can be great for kids, but keep them close on the exposed summit.
