Amanda, Tom and the girls went backpacking last weekend in the North Cascades. This is their family tradition, celebrating the end of school and Fathers' Day.
They hiked back to Martin Lakes, about a 15 mile round trip, which is an easy-peasy walk for them. The elevation is almost 7,000 feet, hence the snow in June.
I'm heading over the mountains today. I might take the northern route over the North Cascades Highway, but it just depends on traffic. Getting north of downtown in rush hour traffic can be tough, so it's usually easier to hop on I-90. Not as interesting a drive, but the car knows the way and I have my regular stops so I don't have to think about anything but the road.
