this fabulous snowshoe route.  We left at 6:00 a.m. to make this 140 mile road trip up North from Seattle to the Mount Baker Ski area.  You actually pass the ski area and park at the last parking area, this area is quite large but it was rather full when we came back to our car.  <\/p>\n<p>Starting early is no secret when it comes to hiking or snowshoeing in the state of Washington.  Our state is filled with nature loving active people that enjoy our vast network of hiking\/snowshoe trails just as I do.  If you start around mid-morning or later you will find yourself sharing the trail with abundant of active people.  For me&#8230;start damn early or stay home, I love fresh snow, quiet trails and the tranquility in the early morning hours.<\/p>\n<p>This is the first time on this trail so we followed a few people at the start and pretty much stayed away from previous trails and made our own path to Huntoon Point.  After a long day of tromping through the snow we ended our day at Sura Korean Barbeque in Lynnwood, Washington.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Huntoon Point Snowshoe Date: March 19, 2016 Difficulty: 7 out of 10 Distance: 5.2 miles roundtrip Elevation Gain: 1,200 feet Time: 4 to 5 hours Location: Very End of Highway 542; Near Mt.
