Sauk Mountain — Sunday, Nov. 6, 2011

North Cascades > North Cascades Highway - Hwy 20
In this winter, this short and easy summer hike becomes more of a challenge, which adds to the fun and reduces crowds. The snow got a bit deep towards the top, but the route was still pretty straightforward and doable without snowshoes. I brought a stove, so on the top we enjoyed a cup of hot chocolate surrounded by the snowy views. What a beautiful day for a late-fall snowy hike! SNOW REPORT: Snow began about 2 miles from the trailhead, but it was driveable by an adventurous 4- or all-wheel drive to within 0.5 mile of the trailhead. The whole trail was covered in 6-18 inches of snow.
