Hike: Mowich Lake Snowshoe
Region: Mt. Rainier -- NW - Carbon River / Mowich
Agency: Mt. Rainier National Park
Avg Rating: 3.25

I went back to Mowich Lake to ski - a month ago we snowshoed and I kept thinking how much fun it would be to ski down. The weather was almost exactly the same as last month - RAIN. This time it never turned to snow - just a steady rain. We skied up to the Lake and it was beautiful. Saw no one on the way up and just two people on the way down. The snow was soft because it was warm but there were tracks all the way up so that made it nice. It is an easy ski, just wished it was a little harder snow so we could come down faster, but it was fun anyway. Parking lot was a little difficult to get around in but we were the only ones parking so it didn't matter. Fun time.

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.
