RON SWARNER: THE ROAD IS NOW OPEN TO FRESH AIR >>>
The North Cascades National Park media center announced that the Cascade River Road is now open to the Cascade Pass Trail parking area. Having hiked the Cascade Pass Trail before I can vouch for the spectacular views of the Eldorado, Johannesburg, Magic, Mixup and McGregor peaks. This trail provides the shortest and easiest access in the park to the alpine environment.
Just do it: The Cascade Pass Trail also serves as a gateway to numerous backcountry trips and climbing routes. All overnight stays in the backcountry require a free permit, which must be obtained in person and is issued on a first come first served basis. Permits can be obtained at the Wilderness Information Center in Marblemount. For more permit information and updated trail conditions, call 360.854.7245 or visit the National Park Service Web site.
