Washington Trails Association
After having your fill on Thanksgiving Day, take your family and
friends on a hike. We offer ten hikes near population centers that are
interesting and accessible throughout the winter.

A hallmark of Thanksgiving dinner is over-eating. And that is just the beginning of a holiday season known for its savory meals, appetizer-rich parties and piles of sugary goodies.
Washington Trails Association Thank you, volunteers! Click to see the list of all 130 trails WTA worked on in 2009.
www.wta.org
Somewhere between creating a short re-route and closing off a steep and eroding section of trail, volunteers shattered a record of volunteer trail work hours last week!
www.wta.org
Our next Executive Director must have a deep love of the outdoors and a strong desire to share the benefits of that experience with the citizens of Washington state. We seek a passionate individual who can embody and effectively communicate the importance of WTA's work.

It's time to clean off those snowshoes and skis and head into our
wintery weather! But before you do, take the time to be prepared for
all conditions.
www.wta.org
There is no need to feel all cabin feverish when you live in Washington. It may be rainy in the lowlands, but it is wonderfully snowy up high. Snowshoeing and cross country skiing options abound. And with a bit of pre-planning, you can clear your head with an invigorating day in the snow.
Washington Trails Association The West Tiger Mountain trails are some of the best places to hike this time of year. Choose the route described in our Hiking Guide or consult your map and make your own adventure. Note that there can be snow on the trail, especially at the summits, so be prepared or stay at low elevations.

Follow Tiger Mountain's finest old rail line while exploring some of the wildest and remotest stands of forest remaining on the mountain.
Washington Trails Association Share your hiking resolutions!

Kristine Nilsen Waterfall right before lake 22 yesterday. So many waterfalls all along here are just gushing due to heavy rain, pretty neat!

Ali Who wants to go snowshoeing in Mt Rainier tomorrow (11/14)?

Colorful aspens still dotted Umtanum Canyon a week ago. This hike near Ellensburg is a little known gem and one the best hikes in spring and fall for spotting wildlife, including big horn sheep.
Sarah Where to hike this weekend?? That is the question.
