Always fun to revisit. This time didn't specifically look for ski tow remains which I found in past, instead, headed to summit proper via "hiking trail" marked from ropes course at base of ski hill. From there, found red plastic-blazed "Ridge Trail" heading west. From there, that led to a logging road/snomo trail at which point we were like, "What is that bump ahead" so we went to that bump "West Peak" - pretty pleasant woods - slippery leaves in spots I suppose because they were a bit damp. From there descended to very old logging road/snomo trail back to ropes course. Nice views through branches since leaves were gone. |
