Ira Spring Trail - Mason Lake — Saturday, Oct. 31, 1998

Snoqualmie Region > Snoqualmie Pass

Annette Lake, Denny Creek, Mason Lake, Pacific Crest Trail, Pratt Lake, Snow Lake, Talapus Lake, Denny Creek - The Alpine Lakes - I decided to take advantage of the good weather and take down all the permit boxes at the trailheads along the South Fork Snoqualmie. Wilderness permits aren't required until May, but the Trail Park Passes are required year-round. Wilderness rangers will be out on the trails this weekend to get the end-of-season updates on trail conditions. Snow level currently varies between 3000 and 4000 feet. Expect new windfalls on the trail. Trails will be muddy due to the freeze/melt cycle until the snow finally settles in. The Snoqualmie Pass Visitor Center is closed for November but will be opening in December for the winter. Snowshoe introduction will be offered every weekend from January thru March. Call 425-434-6111 for details, starting in December. Thank you WTA volunteers for the great work this year.
