So, I climbed Mount Pilchuck yesterday. Reached the peak at 5,400 ft. above sea level at about 1:00 pm. Here’s some pictures from my day!

They’ve got a little captain in them, unfortunately, only room for two captains on that rock.

    yea, it makes no sense, it was in the mid 90's up there, and it got hotter the higher we got. The snow is actually solid ice. it looks like snow, but there’s no way in hell you can get a snowball out of it without an ice pick. Apparently the whole trail was encased in the stuff 2 weeks ago, they just opened up the trail during the week when enough of it had melted, we had a crazy winter, so the snow stuck around for awhile. the white mountain you see in the picture above is mount baker, I live closer to baker than pilchuck, and baker holds the world record for the most snowfall in one year. WORLD record! I think that’s crazy, cause it’s not the tallest mountain, or even in a super cold climate, it just happens to be in the one spot where all the weather systems attach to it and dump snow.
