We headed to Peoh Point in an attempt to get out of the rain on the Wet Side. The road (NF-3350) to the 5-way intersection from South Cle Elum was in great shape. A few potholes here and there but nothing major. We opted to drive past the 5-way intersection to the intersection of NF-114/3350 so we could walk up 114 to Peoh Point and walk back via 119 & 3350. That made the "hike" a 4.3 mile quasi-loop. The trails (roads) were easy walking. If you take NF-114 you'll climb a bit to a radio repeater site before dropping back to Peoh Point. 119 skirts the hillside and it (and 3350) are rather flat. Some wildflowers were still blooming and the views (although cloudy) were still stellar. We encountered two vehicles on the road (a pickup and an ATV). Both were respectful and slowed down as they passes us. There were some shooters in the area that we could hear but they didn't concern us. So long as they're responsible our view is that the area is theirs too to recreate. After the walk we explored the hilltop and headed down to Taneum Creek and out towards Thorp. We really enjoyed the hike since the views were good and the crowds were non-existent.
