Rattlesnake Ledge

Rattlesnake Ledge

Today’s view from the ledge above Rattlesnake Lake near North Bend, part of the I-90 Mountains to Sound Greenway. Tours are available to the nearby Cedar River Watershed and Chester Morse Lake – a major source of our local water. For the history of the area, click here.

Ed Note: There are no rattlesnakes! Just the rattling of the leaves in the breeze, hence the name. The climb to the ledge is 1.9 miles. Because of the glare, I shot this picture using my sunglasses as a filter – hence the poor focus, but I liked the color variation. Warning, this trail becomes crowded after 9 AM.
