Squire Creek Pass via Eight-mile Trail — Friday, Jul. 15, 2022

North Cascades > Mountain Loop Highway

Road was passable with any vehicle, I saw a Honda Fit and Prius at TH. That said, lots of large cobblestone and a few dips you have to make, but overall better than not.

 
Trail- lots of roots, some mud/boggy spots, a few trees to step over. No snow. We spent a few nights and while there isn’t water at the pass it’s easily found within  a short walk. 
If you want to add on a short distance and 600 ft elevation there is a short walk/scramble due south to top of ridge, views were amazing. Very easily navigated. 
We ended up packing out trash left behind from other peoples camp. Unfortunate. 

Mosquitoes were an annoyance, especially at dusk.
