After missing the usual hiking routine in the North Cascades
in 2011, it was plenty fun to get back there in August 2012.After the run up Hannegan Peak (posted
below), I joined friends for an easy day hike up Table Mountain.Tons of snow surrounded the plowed parking
lot and we booted it up the white stuff briefly to reach the sunnier trail
above.The airy switchbacks carved
through cliffs led to the plateau on top and endless wandering among meadows,
snowfields and rockfields, all with dramatic views of Mount Shuksan and Mount
Baker.Back at the car, my friends were
off to their next adventure, while I extended my trek with a wandering trot
down the Wild Goose and Pan Dome Trails to Heather Meadows.
