So the other day I went up to Cascade Pass, one of the premiere sights in the whole Pacific Northwest. It's pretty remote, even though it's in North Cascades National Park--you'll spend an hour going 26 miles on a one lane gravel road just to get to the trailhead. After that, the first leg looks mostly like this, over and over, for 4 miles (6.5 km) and climbing 1800 feet (550 meters). But it gets better. A lot better. A short thread.

A trail leading through a forest. This is a switchback, a hairpin turn where the trail approaches the viewer then turns away again sharply in order to go uphill without becoming too steep. The undergrowth is lush and teeny and the trees above are hemlocks and other conifers and they are covered in moss and lichens
