Boulder River — Saturday, Feb. 3, 2024

North Cascades > Mountain Loop Highway

Road to get to trailhead had a large number of severe potholes and really needs work. If you have a city car like me (Honda Fit) it’s doable but you’ll need to drive at a snail’s pace and be cautious.

Arrived at 9 and trail was not crowded and I could give my dog freedom to roam. The falls are beautiful, not to mention the mossy trees.

I’m a decent hiker but the wet bark at log crossings (there are several) was very slippery and I fell a few times. I normally don’t like carrying poles but with the slippery bark and the large number of stream crossings, they would be good here.

Overall a beautiful hike and I will definitely be back!
