Sauk Mountain — Thursday, Jul. 4, 2024

North Cascades > North Cascades Highway - Hwy 20

The road is no worse than it’s been for the past five years. Take it slow and I’m sure just about anybody can make it to the trailhead. However, I was sad to see how much the trail has eroded over the years. I started early enough that there were very few hikers on the way up, but there were a lot when I was coming down. I told five different groups to please stay on the trail rather than cause erosion by cutting across. Most of them looked at me like they didn’t care. That was disappointing. But I still enjoyed my day. The views were amazing. Take it easy across the snowfield and you’ll be fine. I was glad I had my poles with me.
