A short journey to North Fork Falls is always worthwhile; the Lost Creek Ridge Trail is a good hiking trail close by. This lake is so wonderful.

Boulder Lake
 | 11 miles away Its one hard hike but when you get to the top you forget about everything its a breath taking site. Well worth the work out... |
Stephens Pass
 | 17 miles away 1 PHOTO Stevens has a wide diversity of trails and runs that suits every riding style. From beginner to expert and for those terrain park junkies Stevens has you covered. I think what's special about Stevens is you can find your own little part of the mountain which is all yours, I have 4-5 little runs that cross between trails and off-piste that are all mine. Also the snow is crazy good, powder almost all the time. My favorite runs are Orion, some tree skiing near wall street, and right above the power lines. Stevens also has some pretty sweet out of bounds stuff to so check it out... |
Alpental
