Harold Engles Memorial Cedars — Monday, Sep. 1, 2025

North Cascades > Mountain Loop Highway

We did this hike late in the day after a bigger hike. The trail is a bit overgrown but passable. Long pants were helpful. The short trail is flat and easy. There were walking sticks at the trail head and they were helpful for the first little bit but then not needed. At first you walk through cedars that have been cut, so it is interesting to see what logging did and compare it to the saved grove. You get to the huge memorial tree and then the trail goes off to the left and right. Big trees either direction, but we found most of them on the right hand trail. We think we walked to the end, but aren't 100% sure because of the over-growth. Stunning big cedars. Thank you Mr. Engles for saving this patch of land and trees.
