Blewett Pass – Quick Overnight

Needed to get away, so we headed to one of my favorite areas, Blewett pass. It’s on the east side, but still has big trees, just without all the thick underbrush you would get on the wet side.

It’s a great spot to come in the winter, they keep Swauk Campground (review here!) plowed in the winter, it’s a sno-park and is free to camp with a snopark pass.

Occasionally someone will stop by to use the bathroom or stop by the main picnic shelter, but it’s usually very quiet in the winter.  The lot was a sheet of ice, we ended up shoveling snow around the truck just so we could walk.

I added a folding had rail next to the stairs while we were here, just a quick project.

We had a nice little fire and a quiet dinner. It’s nice to get away.
