Naches Peak Loop — Sunday, Aug. 24, 2025

Got one of the last spots in the lot at 9am. Morning was very warm, probably like 85-90 degrees out! Hiked with a 3 and 5 year old. Very dusty trail, wildflowers past peak but still vibrant, especially the lupine! We were lucky enough to even see a bear which was fun! Tons of butterflies, tadpoles in tipsoo lake and even an axolotl! The kids had an amazing time and the views were amazing as always. Clockwise is definitely the best way to see views but a lot more going uphill.
