Snoqualmie Region > Salmon La Sac/Teanaway

This lovely overgrown trail needs more hikers! We had it all to ourselves. The first 2 miles are easy, then the trail nearly disappears repeatedly into fabulous marshy flower meadows. Avalanche debris also obscures the route in places. It takes longer than you'd think to hike the 8.4 miles, 2900', due to all the route finding, but its worth it! Another great thing about this trail is that the rainshadow kept us in the sun on a day when the west side was dreary. Huckleberries and strawberries are ripe along salmon le sac road and lower part of trail. average mosquitos, not too bothersome.
