We hiked the skyline trail in our first few days of moving to WA state from GA. It was beautiful but oh man, was it crowded! Also, the elevation gain itself wasn't bad, but the thin air towards the top was unlike what I'd ever experienced. Still, 10/10 would do it again!

The Cascade Pass/Sahale Arm Trail is in North Cascades National Park and is one of the most beautiful day hikes anywhere. It is challenging and extraordinarily beautiful all the way to the end of Sahale Arm. Trekking here truly is, indeed, a most spiritual experience.
