Winchester Mtn. - October 21, 2015

This is one of my favorite hikes. The views are stunning from the start and get better as you go up. It is also short so the effort is minimal. The road to the trail head is a challenge but for me it's part of the "charm". There were a number in the group who hadn't done it before and seeing their response added to the joy of the day.
 Tomyhoi Lake is nestled between Tomyhoi Peak on the left and Larrabee and the border peaks on the right.

 We explored the upper portion of the Silesia Creek Trail to get a few more miles.



 The "sketchy" part wasn't bad this year.

 Mt. Shuksan is framed by the twin summits of Goat Mtn.



 The view from the dining room couldn't have been better.

 Twin Lakes and the Skagit Range
