Snoqualmie Region > Salmon La Sac/Teanaway

My first time on this trail, flowers are amazing! Weather was not perfect by any means. I started in down jacket and finished in rain jacket. I'm hoping we get summer next month? Saw very few people on the trail today but several short buses in the parking lots in the area. I camped at De Roux after this hike and went up Iron Peak about half way, no views were to be had, and I was breaking in new boots, so I turned back before reaching saddle.
