Mt. Pilchuck Snow Hike, January 2019

Posted on by

The cold air and heavy snow made this sweet basic Pilchuck hike into a cold ass kicker. Washington received tons of snow this year so every hike this winter has seen heavy snow pack. The winter route up to Pilchuck is steep and deep in snow…..but still very worth it.

This last steep part was the ass kicker. The look-out tower was only 5 minutes after this ass kicking steep area.

You had to crawl into the look-out tower.

I finally put my jacket on as we got into the open….cold and windy.

Go ahead....say something!
