Mt Ellinor Hike

At the beginning of August, Matt, Victoria, Jamie and I hiked up Mount Ellinor in the southeast Olympics. Last year Matt and I scrambled up Mt Washington which shares the same ridge as Ellinor. This time we had a trail all the way to the top, but it was still a workout due to the steep assent and 80 degree weather that day. At the top we were greeted by a mountain goat, great views of the Olympics and the nearby Lake Cushman.
