Grasshopper Pass Trail
When we think of autumn foliage, what comes to mind first is usually the bright, deciduous forests that paint the Northeast. True, we have similar seasonal displays in Washington, but Washington earned its nickname, the Evergreen State, for a reason. It’s no surprise, then, that the seasonal colors of western and subalpine larches have captured the attention of outdoor enthusiasts. Nowadays, hikers crowd trails populated by these unique trees, leading some folks to find alternatives. Grasshopper Pass along the Pacific Crest Trail has so far escaped the leaf-peeping— or, in this case, needle-peeping— masses. For this reason, I think it may be the best fall hike in Washington.
One reason this 9.4-mile out-and-back beauty has avoided the now-standard autumnal inundation of its North Cascades peers is its sheer remoteness. After leaving Mazama— the closest town and your last chance to get supplies— you follow a narrow road for at least an hour before even reaching the trailhead.
