  • At 8970 feet Black Peak stands as one of Washington's top 100 peaks. The 18th tallest peak in Washington stands on the border of North Cascades National Park. Gaining the summit involves a long day crossing talus, steep terrain ans class 3 scrambling. Experience and a helmet are required.
    There is a good reason this is often ranked among Washington's best summits.
    I hit this one at the perfect time, great weather and peak fall colors. Enjoy!

    Loved Black Peak! Lived 13 yrs in PNW, spent all spare time in Cascades which I loved, thanks for bringing back my memories!

    We climbed Black Peak maybe 15 years ago. Camped at Wing Lake, which that August was still half frozen. Had the Perseids overhead that night, and the Norther Lights came on in the distance. Your lovely video shows the rest. FYI the two big peaks to the south when you are at the pass are Goode and Buckner

    I have camped at Lewis Lake and have hiked up to Wing Lake but that's it. Beautiful view. I wish I was younger but alas I have to be happy with what I am physically capable of. Easy Pass has lots of Larch Trees in a small area. Its beautiful as well.

    congratulations on reaching the summit! You officially have summit fever now. It is very pretty up there. Camped at Wing Lake when we climbed Black Peak. Very clear day again. Nice video. It was nice to visit again. Thanks and as always, be careful!

    Love your videos! I've done a lot of the same peaks you've done here including Black, Vesper, Earl/Bean ridge to name a few. Would be fun to tag a peak with you sometime if you're up for it. I have my eye on a full moon sunrise hike up Ptarmigan Ridge and also climbing Larrabee and W McMillan Spire. Cheers!

    This is my dream peak! We couldn't summit it due to the injury of my hiking buddy, but next year, I am looking forward to it! Absolutely love your videos and your love for North Cascades ~! I also saw your video on Trappers peak and I got to summit that two weeks back!

    Awesome! We just did Little Annapurna in a day, going up and down Aasgard in a day and felt the same way afterwards lol.

    • @wanderingwashington
      @wanderingwashington  9 месяцев назад

      Yeah this felt similar to descending Aasgard for sure. Congrats on LAP that's such a fun climb!
