     Go for a hike on the Northern Loop Trail, and a pleasant visit to Mosquito Flat is a brilliant way to spend an afternoon. All year is a splendid time in the Northern Cascade Range if you love the outdoors. Some of the water close by flows, like Van Horn Creek, and Kings Valu Inn is a delightful site to get some rest. Life's too short to enjoy all the enjoyable stuff in the Northern Cascade Range. The peaks of the Sluiskin Mountains dominate the scenery of  
   this area, and don't leave Lake Ethel without first going for a hike along the Carbon Trail.
And if you're still looking for more outdoors fun things just keep reading. Very pretty scenery and good skiing is what you get at Crystal Mountain, and do put some time aside to spend at Van Horn Falls since you're here at Lake Ethel. From Lake Ethel you get a pleasant view of Crescent Mountain, and since you're here at Lake Ethel, checking out Yellowstone Cliffs is
 
               a must. This lake is so wonderful. Lake Ethel is splendid enough to spend more than a day at, Ipsut Creek Campground is a splendid local campground; a lake close by is Marjorie Lake.

July 19, 2008-- We hiked up to Mt. Beljica this date. I would not recommend it just yet because of the unusually heavy snowfall last winter, unless you're very familiar with the trail. The entire trail is still snow covered from Lake Christine on up to the top of Mt. Beljica. We lost the trail, and then found it again.... that was a bit unnerving....

White Pass

...nowfall (350'' in an average season) and with the highest base elevation on the crest of the Washington Cascades.
The resort strikes a perfect balance between pulse quickening steeps, wide open cruisers and gentle learning areas with 33 percent of the terrain geared toward experts, 43 percent toward intermediates and 24 percent toward beginners.
Nothing gets you to the top faster than the Great White Express, Washington's only Doppelmayr high-speed detachable quad. Great White can take you from the base to the summit in five minutes.

It's got one of the most scenic and well-maintained cross-country areas in the Northwest. The 18 km of double track, which allows both classic and skating, circles a picturesque lake and then climbs into the Wenatchee National Forest.
The White Pass Learning Center has developed a wide variety of programs for all ages and abilities....
