We drove up to the Gold Creek Pond SnoPark at Snoqualmie Pass to hike up to Kendall Knob (same trail as Kendall Peak Lakes), 8 miles round trip with 1,800' gain. We used our micro spikes. Snowshoes weren't needed as long as we stayed on the compacted snow. The erosion of the bridge over Coal Creek at the start of the trail is greater than it was a year ago.
