5 miles of hiking • 3500' elevation gain •

Got this from the 75 scrambles book. Was going to do Guye, then Snoqualmie, but I got distracted by Cave Ridge and a geocache. Started out the hike in a light overcast drizzle that eventually diminished to just moody clouds. Very refreshing. Really liked that area. Caves, marmots, huckleberrries. Decided to head straight up to Snoqualmie from the Cave Ridge saddle. Really fun alpine scrambling. Climbed up to the east pinnacle and got sketched out, downclimbed and traversed to true summit.

Although there were about 50 cars at the Alpental lot, I did not encounter anyone on my trip, just saw one group from afar.
