Escape Plan:
Escape Plan: Start the day off with a short drive across Lake Washington and along Lake Sammamish up into the Cascade foothills to our region's self-named Mountains to Sound Greenway, straddling Interstate 90, in the heart of Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest. With the adventurous day before us we stop to view the breath taking Snoqualmie Falls and experience up close and personal the 268’ foot Falls tumbling over granite cliffs into the emerald canyon below. This place is overflowing with peaks, lakes, rivers and streams and the perfect region to enjoy the outdoors. Depending on conditions, your guide will pick the Trail of the Day and embark on an interpretive hike or snowshoe to the nearest vista experiencing the season’s beauty and the adaptive ecosystem! Track and spot wildlife and birds, all the while making sure we take time just taking in some magical scenery. You will also witness a grand landscape in motion - as seen from a geological perspective, your guide will describe the forces that have shaped the land, which only adds to the pleasure of the remarkable panorama. This escape will no doubt quench your thirst for an authentic Pacific Northwest wine and adventure!
