This is my favorite time of year for hiking. Out in Eastern WA this week, taking a WFR cert course at 49 Degrees North. Got out for a short walk yesterday in the ski area.... got hassled by security, so I didn't get very far. Never skied here, but looks like a sweet spot.

Roaming around our most creatively named canyon... Number 2. This sits directly South of it's companion canyon Number 1. No particular objective for this walk... If the stars align this is a sweet spot for the finest low elevation Hippy Pow in the valley. Unfortunately, the trailhead sits just below where persistent snowpack tends to develop. We get a good week down in this zone every now and then. I've skied here once in 10 seasons. Perhaps with the strengthening La Nina, perhaps this season I'll make it over here again.

Here's the Earth View of the approach

It was a fine Autumn day for a walk in the woods

If the stars align (that's saying a lot this season), I'm hoping to head back to 49 Degrees North given that it's on the Indy Pass. Had a great day there in March 2013:

Went over to a spot called Mountain Home Ridge. In my opinion, this is the best of the "low commitment" walk in the Leavenworth area. A 20 minute ascent gets you some pretty amazing views....
