You may have fallen over.

Gotta get away, gotta go go go

A late season meander over the North Cascades highway... offering adventure at the price of fuel since 1972.

Goal was Slate Peak at 7440' 3 miles from Hart's pass which is the highest drive-able pass in Warshington state.
You can drive (usually) to about 7250' and hike the last couple hundred feet.

Views from 7200' give or take a few


Trusty Ram delivery device and best buddy ever from high school


Slate Peak lookout- that is the road on the left... winds peeled all the snow from lower slopes and plopped it there in a nice drift


Not Slate Peak


The Larch trees still holding color can be spotted from quite some distance with the naked and rather chilled eye.
It's an easy-ish 31 miles to the Canadian border from here and the northern end of the PCT


This neighborhood appeals to me
