Fun trek back to Gallagher Lake on to the end of Hawkins Mine Trail.

 

Great photos! It's pretty amazing, being able to drive right up into that Alpine type environment. Most of that is locked away in Wilderness areas, for hikers & horseback only.

I like hiking too - but it's cool to be able to drive a 4x4 someplace like this!

Thanks for posting.

Yes, pretty cool.

 

Looks great. We will be in Washington state next month. Where is this?

 

It's by Cle Elum off I90, just look up fortune creek trail- 4W301

 

Thanks for posting the pics and location, that's a trial I'd like to do.

 

Great fun trail!
I was reading the "Timber Tamers" off road club facebook page, and someone in their group stole the crankshaft that marked that final "crank shaft" hill, a couple weeks ago.
Anyone know anyone in that club, kindly ask them to replace it. Seemed like an iconic marker up there.

uechiyondan - We may be up for meeting up with you and going too depending on the day.
