Here is how to get to the Greenwater lakes.

I'm not too familiar with the North Cascades, but check out Glacier Peak wilderness. It's about 45 minutes from Marysville, with about 450 miles of trails. I know the Pacific Crest Trail passes through there, and a quick check in one of my hiking books has almost 20 hikes in the area.

I'd reccomend going to the library and seeing what hiking books you can find that deal with the north Cascades.

7 mile hike!
My max is 1/2 mile lol that's alot of walking but it looks nice.

I googled earth Glacier Peak and it looks like it's about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. takes me about 45 min's to get to Seattle.

Looks like all the cool places are far away :(

I would love to find a killer spot ot to far with easy access.
Best fishing by me that I have found is Darrington.. Thats about 45 min or so drive away.

Thanks for the pictures, I didn't realize there was so many nice places in Washington.

Went to check out the spot today and I caught jack ****

Sound like all my fishing trips :irked:
 
I went and checked out the upper Green (Duwamish) River and it's finally dropped enough and cleared up that I can catch trout again. If anyone wants to do some river fishing (bring waders/Mepps/Rooster Tails) and crayfish collecting (I have a trap, also just use a net) let me know. Don't usually catch any keeper size (14"+) but I can usually catch and release ~10 8-12" trout in a couple hours. Probably go out Saturday morningish. It's a nice little hike to my favorite spots. Between the Enumclaw Black Diamond bridge and Kanasket Palmer State Park.
