North Fork Sauk River — Monday, Aug. 16, 2021

North Cascades > Mountain Loop Highway

Forest Service was closing FR49 as I was leaving from my seemingly well-timed overnight trip due to wildfires. So until fires are under control and Forest Service decides to open it again, anything down FR49 is inaccessible by car.

Did you find this trip report helpful?

I hope to visit there very soon! And hope for FS to have success and be safe, with the fire.

What fire? I'm not finding anything about a fire in that area or any closure.

That's why I'm letting you know about it here.

How far and high did you hike to get these views?

These were taken from Red Pass, about 1.5mi west of the end of the North Fork Sauk River trail on the PCT. A little over 10mi and 5000' to get there.
