It's a fall back place for me to go, whatever the weather. And now since this blog is going a while I've got a little bit of history to the place. A couple years ago they paved the lookout. Now the roads are a little better, to facilitate logging. I love both those routes you mention. On Saturday, I just went from the upper trailhead up and around on a horseshoe to the Incline Trail. Many of my friends do the connection--the only time I've ran across both is during the North Face 50 miler, which was a really cool course, covering both systems well.Scottyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15346029004509730578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4695295435066427359.post-24746972281054745352015-03-10T06:02:59.610-07:002015-03-10T06:02:59.610-07:00Blanchard Mt - loved it and didn't run there e...Blanchard Mt - loved it and didn't run there enough. Used to love the downhill segments from Max's Shortcut down towards the overlook, and the Incline Alternate Trail down to the B-1000 road. Really wish I would have taken the opportunity to do the connecting run between Blanchard and Chuckanut. Sounds like you had a great day up there.Tim Loftonnoreply@blogger.com
