Cascade Range. After a long day outdoors Howard Johnson Snoqualmie/Summit is a good place to spend a night or two, and not far from Glacier Lake you'll discover Park Lakes which is a charming lake. This lake is so wonderful. Get
dripping wet paddling on Box Canyon Creek, and Alta Pass is a great spot to spend some time. This lake is so wonderful. There are great places to discover along the Cooper Pass Trail, and what would winter be without some skiing at
Snoqualmie. Yep, outdoors fun stuff to do are truly abundant here at Glacier Lake. Get yourself into a kayak and hit Snoqualmie River - Middle Fork; you can stay the night at Crystal Springs Campground. And that's not all there
is to do here in the Northern Cascade Range. If you need a spot to stay Suncadia Resort is a wonderful choice, and you obtain a pleasant view of Chikamin Peak from here.
