Sadly, I tend
to neglect these regions of the state, though they contain magnificent
scenery and deserve a lifetime of visits. I have my excuses. The Olympics
are hard to get to due to the ferries. Mt. Rainier requires a full weekend
to climb (for a mortal like me), but with good weather I honestly prefer
a visit to the North Cascades. My hope is that in the future I'll spend
more time here (he concluded somewhat lamely).
I define this
region to be Cascade peaks south of I-90, the Olympic Penninsula, central
and eastern Washington. Trips are arranged in alphabetical
order by mountain and route.
