Keechelus Ridge Snowshoe

It's still full blown winter out here (in the mountains) so we're not too late to get in some more 'shoeing. We headed out past Snoqualmie summit to hike up to Keechelus Ridge.

With puppy in tow (or is that backwards?...who's walking who?) we must always remember his poop bags.


Townsend laughed as we strapped on our snowshoes. His are built in! It was funny to see his paws spread out for the whole trip. hey...it helped!


Just sniffing around. He loves trees.


Stay still for a picture?...I don't understand.


Now where exactly are we? Where is this ridge?


Taking a break


Guys! there's something down here!



Family photo:)


We finally made it up to the ridge.


There were some great views....but nothing compared to a clear day.


We all took a break. Brooke and Andrea munched on snacks. Townsend munched on branches.


Total elevation: 4469 ft.

It was fun getting out on a nice sunny-ish day.


Beautiful self portrait.


Back down the ridge and toward a warm car.
