A larch hike…on a gorgeous WEEKEND day in October…WITHOUT crowds? They do exist!
Winthrop
Larch Madness at Cutthroat Pass & Lake
The larches are coming, the larches are coming! The stunning larch trees are starting to turn (or have already), so now is the time to hit the road! What are you waiting for?
Sun Mountain Trails: Kraule-View Ridge Loop
In Winthrop is the famous Sun Mountain Lodge. Amongst other lodge-y amenities, the lodge offers some stunning snowshoe and xc-skiing trails. We decided to check out their snowshoe trails when in Winthrop for MLK weekend.
Pearrygin Lake State Park Snowshoe
The boyfriendo’s family recently moved to Winthrop. Knowing what an outdoor city Winthrop is year-round, I was thrilled for a chance to visit!
A Tale of Two Winthrops, Part Two
After enjoying a beautiful sunny hike and exploring town day one in Winthrop, we planned for a longer hike (Pipestone Canyon) for day two. However, we awoke to the sound of driving rain on a metal roof and suddenly nine miles didn’t seem like a whole lot of fun.
When in Winthrop…Drink Local!
After hiking Patterson Mountain in unexpectedly warm weather, the boyfriendo and I were super ready for a beer and food. Winthrop might be a small town, but it’s big on great food and drinks!
A Tale of Two Winthrops, Part 1
For our anniversary, the boyfriendo surprised me with a weekend in Winthrop! Located northeast of Seattle, near North Cascades National Park, this town is a playground in both the winter and summer for outdoor activities–but how would the shoulder season hold up?
