If you are looking for an aggressive summer hike, than Annette Lake in Snoqualmie Pass just might be your solution. The elevational gain is substantial and the views are tremendous. Keep in mind, this is backcountry wilderness, and even in late June, Annette Lake can still be partly frozen. Just to be safe, do not walk out on the ice, as breaking through would most likely damage your enjoyment of the hike…..ahum. Dog’s are ok on the trails, but keep them close. Stats: 3.6 miles, 1400′ elevation gain, high point 3600′. Getting there: Take I-90 to exit 47 and get on Road 55 on the south side of the freeway. Turn east and the trailhead is at the parking lot half a mile ahead.

Unfortunately, another casualty of the poor economy is the cancellation of the annual “Music in the Mountains” located in Snoqualmie Pass. This is very unfortunate as this summer concert was a wonderful family event, set in a beautiful setting.
At least for now, it does not look like the venue will occur, although there is still some consideration for a smaller production that will be held in August.
Stay tuned for futre updates.
