Travel Guide

Gothic Basin is a great backpacking hike or long day hike. Off the Mountain Loop Highway near Barlow Pass, it is a great way to scope out all the peaks in the area.

Diablo Lake is a reservoir in the North Cascade mountains of northern Washington state, United States. Created by Diablo Dam, the lake is located between Ross Lake and Gorge Lake on the Skagit River at an elevation of 1,201 feet (366 m) above sea level. The unique, intense turquoise hue of the lake's water is attributed to the surrounding glaciers that grind rocks into a fine powder that is carried into the lake through creeks. That fine powder stays suspended in the lake, giving the water its brilliant color. #nationalpark #roadtrip
The lake is that blue-green color nearly all year long, fed by glaciers melting down the North Cascades. I drove by this spot for four days straight and never really got used to it.
Grab a grassy seat at the top of the hill at Gas Works Park for one of the best views of Seattle. Perfect for July 4th fireworks viewing, sailboat spotting, or picnicking and cloud gazing.
