North Cascades Loop 2011

We like to get out of town every spring and drive over the North Cascades Highway (WA 20) because it is closed for most of the year and it is gorgeous.  We also enjoy camping and hiking along the east coast of the Cascade mountains (the sunny side) in the spring when we're craving some sunshine.
Here's a few photos of our 2011 trip.
