Free guided Backpack to Andrews Creek with Washington Trails Association

Saturday, Sep 13, 2008 9:00am WA 

Each summer, Washington Trails Association offers a series of free guided excursions into Washington's scenic wild lands.

On a Wildland Discovery Hike we visit trails and wildlands that face threats and learn about the issues that affect our trail system. 

Each of these trails—and they wildlands they traverse—need our support.  On these hikes, you’ll learn more about the challenges facing these trails, and how you can help. With lakes, summits, river valleys, and wildflowers, the series offers something for every hiker.

Andrews Creek/Meadow Lake overnight —Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest

Round Trip:  15 miles

Hikers will enjoy an overnight trip into the Pasayten Wilderness, up Andrews Creek to the cutoff to the Meadow Creek Trail. Andrews Creek was severely fire-damaged several years ago. We’ll have a chance to see how the area is recovering and marvel at the work that the Forest Service has put in.  In addition we will discuss the upcoming opportunities to have a say in the future of the Okanogan - Wenatchee National Forest.
