Being from the East Coast, I&#8217;d always heard the Pacific Northwest was beautiful, but no one told me it was America&#8217;s own version of the Alps. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_9526_Original-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11771\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_9526_Original-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_9526_Original-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_9526_Original-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_9526_Original-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_9526_Original-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_9526_Original-696x522.jpeg 696w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_9526_Original-1068x801.jpeg 1068w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_9526_Original-1920x1440.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_9526_Original-560x420.jpeg 560w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_9526_Original-80x60.jpeg 80w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_9526_Original-265x198.jpeg 265w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_9526_Original-400x300.jpeg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This hike to Sahale Arm is, honestly, one of the best hikes I&#8217;ve ever been on in my life. The trail is interesting and the terrain is beyond beautiful. It definitely was a bit busy &#8211; but that&#8217;s to be expected based on it&#8217;s accessibility (driving) and renowned views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.gaiagps.com\/public\/XMJp2aJzrELd6WGPyQEq7gls?embed=True\" style=\"border:none; overflow-y: hidden; background-color:white; min-width: 320px; max-width:420px; width:100%; height: 420px;\" scrolling=\"no\" seamless=\"seamless\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want alpine lakes, glaciers, rocky ridges, goats and pastures&#8230; look no further. It&#8217;s definitely a tough hike. Expect to spend your morning heading up switchbacks and take lunch at the very top. There is a camp site at Sahale Glacier but you do need a permit and it is extremely exposed. I&#8217;m not sure I&#8217;d recommend it unless you&#8217;re trying to climb the glacier the next day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Sahale-IMG_7597-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11774\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Sahale-IMG_7597-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Sahale-IMG_7597-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Sahale-IMG_7597-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Sahale-IMG_7597-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Sahale-IMG_7597-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Sahale-IMG_7597-696x522.jpg 696w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Sahale-IMG_7597-1068x801.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Sahale-IMG_7597-1920x1440.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Sahale-IMG_7597-560x420.jpg 560w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Sahale-IMG_7597-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Sahale-IMG_7597-265x198.jpg 265w, https:\/\/mappyhour.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Sahale-IMG_7597-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cascade Pass to Sahale Arm is the best hike in the North Cascades (only a few hours from Seattle)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":11772,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[62,796],"tags":[917,914,285],"yst_prominent_words":[504],"class_list":{"0":"post-11769","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-adventures","8":"category-hiking","9":"tag-gaia","10":"tag-map-of-the-month","11":"tag-seattle"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v14.2 -
