I took these photos while heading west after having been to Washington Pass. I think the mountain views are better coming down the west side than going up. If you have never been to Washington Pass on SR20, you are missing one of America's most scenic highways.
This fellow made it up the west side of the North Cascades Highway to Washington Pass (elevation 5,477 feet) by two pm. What a challenge!
One of my favorite stops along the North Cascades Highway is the bridge over Gorge Creek. I love to walk over the creek on the grating. This view is looking straight down to the creek.
These are photos I took May 15 as we headed east on the North Cascades Highway, on our way to Washington Pass.
