All in Hiking

Bellingham, 1–2 June

Melody’s brother and his wife are both professional musicians, so it makes sense that their kids are, too. Their son, Kenny, is studying music at Western Washington University in Bellingham, and we were able to go to his Junior Recital last weekend. We decided to make a mini-trip out of it and spent the night.

Hikes November 2021–March 2022

This installment covers hikes from the past several months. We were in Arizona for a week in November and did a couple of hikes in Saguaro National Forest. In late January/early February, we went on a short road trip to the Leavenworth area and did some snowshoeing. The last couple of snowshoe hikes were in the Seattle area.

Hikes - May/June 2021

Most of our hikes in May were during our trip through the Columbia River Gorge, but we did sneak a hike early in the month to Wallace Falls. We intended for that early hike to get us used to elevation gain (knowing we would have 2,500+ ft gain hikes), but it also ended up being very long. And the last hike was snuck in before several busy upcoming weeks.

Hikes - Nov 2020–Feb 2021

We were able to fit in one more hike in November 2020, then switched to snowshoeing starting in January. In addition to a couple of outings in the Snoqualmie Pass area, we also spent a couple of nights in the Lake Wenatchee area and got in some great snowshoe hikes there.

Hikes - Sep/Oct 2020

We did a lot of hiking in September and October, with all but Snow Lake on a trip we took to the Mt. Baker area and Leavenworth. I only tracked the larger hikes, which is why there isn't distance/gain data or graphs for the short ones.
