We took our granddaughter on a winter walk to Gold Creek Pond on the east side of Snoqualmie Pass (in the winter a SnoPark Pass is needed to park along the access road). It is about 1/2 mile from the snopark area to the trailhead at Gold Creek Pond. The entire route was well packed down, we did not need snowshoes.
We started out as the sun was lighting up the top of the nearby peaks.
We went clockwise when we reached the loop that goes around Gold Creek Pond. View from the bridge over Gold Creek looking east.
