We just opened a bunch of new Crevasse Rescue dates! Crevasse rescue ability is an ESSENTIAL skill for navigation of glaciated terrain. It's also a perishable skill. It requires you to refresh every season to maintain efficiency. Whether you choose to take a course, or go out and practice with like minded friends, it is crucial to get out and utilize these skills before you actually need them. Course dates below: - June 16-17 - June 17-18 - June 24-25 - June 25-26 - June 26-27 - July 14-15 - July 15-16 - July 16-17 - July 29-30 Cost: $250 #CrevasseRescue #MountBaker #northcascadesnationalpark #northcascades #pnwadventures #pnw #glaciermountaineering

Happy #WildlifeWednesday! The National Park Service and U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service have announced a decision to actively restore grizzly bears to the North Cascades of Washington, where the animals once roamed. ๐ป According to the decision released April 25, agencies have decided to restore grizzly bears to the North Cascades ecosystem through the translocation of grizzly bears from other ecosystems in the Rocky Mountains or interior British Columbia. The decision is the culmination of an Environmental Impact Statement process that began in 2022. ๐ป Agencies will seek to move three to seven grizzly bears per year for a period of five to 10 years to establish an initial population of 25 bears. ๐ป Under the decision, grizzly bears in the North Cascades will be designated as a nonessential experimental population under section 10(j) of the Endangered Species Act, providing land managers with additional tools otherwise not available under the existing Actโs regulations. ๐ป There is no set timeline for when translocation of grizzly bears to the ecosystem may begin.

The poet dreams of the mountain |Rise Up โข Sometimes I grow weary of the days, with all their fits and starts. I want to climb some old gray mountains, slowly, taking The rest of my lifetime to do it, resting often, sleeping Under the pines or, above them, on the unclothed rocks. I want to see how many stars are still in the sky That we have smothered for years now, a century at least. I want to look back at everything, forgiving it all, And peaceful, knowing the last thing there is to know. All that urgency! Not what the earth is about! How silent the trees, their poetry being of themselves only. I want to take slow steps, and think appropriate thoughts. In ten thousand years, maybe, a piece of the mountain will fall. Mary Oliver, The Poet Dreams of the Mountain, from Swan: Poems and Prose Poems, Beacon Press โข Sunrise & climbing into another Season of wonder & wandering into the North Cascades | woke up - it was a Shuksan morning & the sunrises onto the climbers trail to Shuksan illuminating everything - as Annie Dillard wrote "I cannot cause light; the most I can do is try to put myself in the path of its beam" & so I do ( & here we all are ) โข #northcascadesnationalpark #vibrance #sunrise #maryoliver #sunrisephotography #poetrycommunity #goatworthy #climbinglife #climbwashington #pnwphotographer #pnwwonderland #gayhiker #ourpnw #wanderwashington #hikewashington #cascadiaexplored #pnwwanderlust #trailrunning #hikingwashington #backpackingculture #explorewashington #inyourownbackyard #diversifyoutdoors #lgbtqia #mountshuksan #wildernessculture #themountainiscalling @washingtontrails @ncascades @mountaineersorg @ncascadesnps @poetryfoundation @nature_org โข In this dream, you are all I see . . .

I am not a planner person whatsoever, and hiring a planner wouldโve taken sooooo much stress off. My biggest regret was not setting myself and my husband up to fully enjoy being engaged and experience our wedding day stress free. ๐ง๐ฎ๐ธ๐ฒ ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐ฎ๐น ๐๐ถ๐บ๐ฒ ๐๐ถ๐๐ต ๐บ๐ ๐ต๐๐๐ฏ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ผ ๐ฑ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐บ I feel like people assume that since Iโve been in the wedding industry for so long, planning my own wedding would be a breeze (lowkey assumed that myself too). I found the opposite was true for me. Having access to all the latest trends and styles and ideas was paralyzing, and quickly led me to burnout as I floated from idea to idea. If I could go back, before I did any other planning, Iโd take as much time as we needed to really hone in on what our dream wedding would look and feel like. ๐๐น๐ผ๐ฝ๐ฒ ๐ถ๐ป๐๐๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฑ Lol Iโm mostly kidding. ๐ Overall I just wish I stuck to my guns and not compromised as much as I did when it came to guest list size. Looking back I feel like I kinda had one foot in, one foot out between these two conflicting wedding ideas. If I could do it over, Iโd commit to either, eloping just the two of us then celebrating with everyone later OR, if push came to shove, having a slightly larger wedding than originally planned. Did any of these resonate with you?? If you're married, drop a comment and tell me if there's anything you would change about your wedding day! Alsooo stay tuned cuz I'm thinking I'll do a "3 things I LOVED about my wedding day" or something in the next few posts! ๐๐

Have you ever been to a place that feels surreal? Welcome to the North Cascades. Here, youโll find an endless array of mountainsโso stunning, theyโre dubbed the American Alps. With their jagged peaks and steep inclines, these mountains are breathtakingly beautiful. Having moved here from the East Coast nine years ago, Iโm still captivated every time I see them. Watching a sunset from these heights is like experiencing a natural high thatโs hard to put into words. I feel so alive, grateful for the beauty my eyes behold, the air filling my lungsโIโm just overwhelmingly thankful to be here. Itโs like watching a scene from a movie that seems too magnificent to be real. If you havenโt visited, put the North Cascades on your bucket list and donโt forget your camera!
Todayโs episode covers our last day on the copper ridge loop! Here are a few snippets from our trek out. Including our special song, how we really felt about the trail and the parking lot celebration! Thanks to everyone who came on this journey with us, it was a truly special trail and we hope you enjoyed this series!!! โฅ๏ธ #copperridgeloop #backpacking #northcascadesnationalpark

Wildland Firefighter Tee 25$: This was created because my roots are in the forest of the PNW. Doing a lot of my growing up in Eastern WA, Iโve seen the changes. Iโve seen some of the worst wild fires in a long time in the Cascades recently. That being said, this has been a mild winter, the snow pack is low, the #northcascades opened very early this year, and mild blowing enough, western WA is even hitting record lows on rain this year. I wanted to create a shirt where all proceeds go to these men and women who protect our lands, work their asses off, and donโt get enough money or credit for the things they do for our forests. A thankless job that deserves a lot more than most jobs. This is not enough and not much, but this is our thank you. Any of my buddies out there that are Wildland fire fighters, hit me up I got a special deal for you ;). Support a small company that supports these crews that support our forests. #buywithapurpose Love yโall!

Went up to Cutthroat Pass (near Washington Pass) via Cutthroat Lake side. Extra mile each way because the road to TH is still snow covered. Clouds moved in before I got high up, but there were a bunch of cool partially snowbound larches making shadows on the snow.

#nationalparkweek #northcascadesnationalpark During our visit in June 2021 we were enthrall with not only the majesty of the geography, but also the flora and fauna. As for the slugs ๐คข, the banana slug improves the soil and disperses seeds, while the black slug eats seedlings voraciously. These are both small specimens- the banana slug can grow to 10โ๐ฎ
#nationalparkweek We spent 2 days in #northcascadesnationalpark June 2021. It was breathtaking, relaxing and challenging all rolled into the 4th least visited NP in 2021. The glacial lakes and rivers should inspire awe.
Happy National Park Week. We are so grateful to have visited 16 National Parks. So many more to go. Did you know that it costs $30 to enter a National Park but if you plan to visit more than 2 each yeah, you can buy the America The Beautiful pass for just $80 per year. If youโre a senior, their senior lifetime pass is just a one time fee of $80. These passes also give you discounts on NP campgrounds.

little iphone photo to switch things up a bit. there are few hikes that i would label as life changing or altering. while it is true that each time you venture out into nature and put yourself in less than comfortable situations, you learn something about that place and yourself. not every hike is able to impact you at a deeper and more profound level. this was one of those hikes, and one of those places where i felt this. having the spot all to myself for a good half an hour was an added perk :) enjoy! ๐Coast Salish, Stillaguamish, Snohomish, and Tulalip lands . . . #northcascades #northcascadesnationalpark #cascades #mtbaker #lake22 #laketwentytwo #washington #washingtonstate #oregon #nationalpark #nationalparks #nationalparkphotography #nationalparkgeek #nps #statepark #stateparks #travel #travelphotography #travelgram #usatravel #letsgosomewhere #adventure #roadtrip #landscapephotography #landscape #canonphotography #canon #canonrebel #lgbt #mountains

A WHOLE MOOD. North Cascades National Park is located in North Central Washington State. Established on October 2, 1968, itโs appropriately nicknamed โThe American Alps.โ In fact, a lot of the park is closed for access in the wintertime due to an absurdly high amount of snowfall and subsequent avalanche risk. North Cascades National Park is home to forests, subalpine meadows, and more than 300 glaciers, as well as bears, wolves, marmots, deer, and other mammals. Even though itโs just a short three-hour drive from Seattle in the summertime, North Cascades is one of the least visited national parks in the country. Weโre not quite sure why, because itโs GORGEOUS, although weโre guessing that people opt for the more accessible Mount Rainier and Olympic when theyโre in Washington. In August of 2023, we caught North Cascades on a rare weekend when access was limited by wildfires across the highway connecting the park directly to Seattle. This allowed us to hike Maple Pass Loop when only a few other souls were on it โย swipe through for some photos that captured this particularly magical day! #BOTPcommunity #nationalparkweek #northcascadesnationalpark

Mount Redoubt in the not so distant North Cascades National Park, US, as seen from Chilliwack Lake, BC. Since I moved here in November last year, I've always seen the peaks around the valley under a snow cap. It gives me this certain thrill to capture a moment in these peaks that will never return. The snow will eventually melt this summer, and next winter, the peaks will be adorned with a unique new pattern altogether.
methow river and downtown winthrop, WA . . winthrop is a cute little town, with the closest accommodations to the eastern entrance of north cascades national park if youโre not camping. it was about a 30 minute drive to the nearest hikes. we stayed at hotel rio vista and picked up food from local bakeries to eat while we visited the park. the furthest we went was diablo dam, and after 2 long days of hiking and exploring, we ended up both nights at the methow valley ciderhouse. . #sonyalpha #sonya7iii #sonyalphafemale #hiking #pnw #landscapephotography #naturephotography #pnwlife #pnwadventures #pnwphotographer #hikingadventures #northcascades #northcascadesnationalpark #river #northcascadeshighway #pines #riverside #nationalpark #washingtonstate #hike #hikingtrails #pnwonderland #pnwhiking #scenic #scenicview #thedreamersplace #stayandwander #ifyouleave #wtns #outdooradventures

Somehow one of the least visited National Parks, the North Cascades is not one to miss. Thereโs only one road that runs through the park, but itโs full of amazing hikes and backpacking routes, surrounded by pristine alpine lakes and rivers. Also, itโs one of the snowiest places on Earth, so plenty of winter activities. . . . . . . #teamcanon #shotoncanon #earth_shotz #earthoutdoors #depthsofEarth #eclectic_shotz #naturegramy #moodnation #moodygrams #moods_in_frame #earthhotspots #nationalparkgeek #nationalparkwonders #nationalparkspartnership #yournationalparks #pnwonderland #pnwoutsiders #Washingtonexplored #wanderwashington #pnwmoods #pnwescapes #pnwproject #destinationpnw #onlyinwashington #northcascades #northcascadesnationalpark
