Mount Washington — Thursday, May. 2, 2013

Olympic Peninsula > Hood Canal
We hit this beautiful trail during the week last week and it went pretty well. About 1.8 miles in or so it got pretty snowy on the trail. My friend was wise enough to bring snow boots while I went a little ill-prepared with only tennis shoes and jeans and while I powered through it, my feet were soaked. The snow got gradually deeper the higher we reached to probably more than 4 feet. I would definitely bring snow boots and poles for this one if you want to keep your feet dry. We got a little confused as we kept climbing due to thinking it was only going to be about 2 miles one way, but seemed like much more. We reached an open valley area, which didn't seem to be the end, but decided to turn back as we ran out of the time. The view and the trail were gorgeous and definitely worth trying out yourself.
