-I truly believe that this hike could be the most scenic day hike in the Pacific Northwest (PNW) and Washington State. If you enjoyed the video, be sure to consider subscribing to the channel!

Tessa's finally back! If you follow along on the channel, then you'd know we just got done with a seven episode series of our amazing Idaho White Clouds backpacking trip, and the one thing that was missing in those videos was.... her, and now she's back :) This week, we're showcasing a beautiful day hike we completed in the North Cascades National Park of Washington - The Maple Pass Loop hike. This loop provided an absolutely incredible and scenic trip.

The trail begins at the Rainy Pass Trailhead, and you essentially have two options to begin: Start left and take the trail clockwise, or start right and take the trail counter clockwise. We took the counter clockwise approach, and I'll explain why in the video. Once on the trail, you will meander through old growth forest for approximately three miles until you get above the tree line. Once above, the trail boasts beautiful views of the North Cascades for miles and miles around. I still think there are parts of my jaw on the trail because it dropped to the ground so many times.

There are plenty of side trips on this trail as well, which makes it nice if you want to grab some more views along the way. We began hiking bright early, and opted to stop into Lake Ann to watch the sun rise and to eat breakfast. For more information, be sure to reference the video and leave a comment if you have any questions.
