Carne Mountain — Saturday, Oct. 7, 2023

Central Cascades > Stevens Pass - East

Quite possibly the most beautiful fall day I’ve ever experienced! The larches here are worth the difficulty of the hike. The road to the TH is no joke—it took us about an hour in my Subaru on the FS road. When we arrived around 10:30am, we parked a good 10 min walk away from the start. Everyone seemed to be in good spirits despite the popularity. So so many dogs off leash though…
The larches were mostly all at peak today, with some past. We saw about 5 tents when we were leaving, and about 5 more groups going up. It took us a lot longer to get back to Seattle due to the traffic along highway 2 from Leavenworth.
