Cascade Pass in all its Glory!

We wanted to start out early but ended up at the trail head at about 10:00 in the morning. Couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day with all the sunshine and no clouds. There were only a few small blow-downs on the trail, with no real effort to get over them, and two patches of snow to cross. We saw lots of birds, and a marmot on the trail doing their usual songs and whistling.

We turned around at the pass and went back down rather quickly, much faster than going up!
