Iron Goat Trail — Friday, Nov. 10, 2006

Central Cascades > Stevens Pass - West

I packed my rain gear on Saturday morning and headed down Highway 2. I drove up Road 6710 to the Iron Goat Trailhead. There was snow at the trailhead but the road there was easy to drive. As soon as I got out of the car snow started falling from the sky, much nicer than rain. I’ve wanted to check out this trail for a long time but today was my first time. The trail splits from this trailhead, I chose the upper trail. The trail was beautiful in the fresh snow. I took a lot of photos on the way and by the time I reached the second tunnel my camera battery was dead. I turned back there and hope to come back again with snowshoes later this winter.
