North Cascades > Mountain Loop Highway

Beautiful day, no smoke! The road is in very good condition. Parking lot was full when we arrived at 10 on a sunny Saturday. We were about the third car on the road. Later in the afternoon the cars lined the road for quite a distance. Bathroom at trailhead was open but not stocked. We have hiked this trail many times, and it is in great shape. As expected, a busy day, with lots of groups, dogs, families. We opted to stop at the bottom on the lookout, because we had our dogs with us and it was pretty crowded. Views were still amazing.

The bathroom was full of toilet paper when I hiked yesterday. Really popular hike especially on weekends. Hope it can be stocked soon.
