THREE HIKING SISTERS, we love to hike together, but we don't all live in the same state. Sometimes it is only two of us, and sometimes we hike with others. This is a record of some of our hikes.

Pratt Balcony
This morning we did two hikes in the Middle Fork of the Snoqualmie River area. Our second hike was to Pratt Balcony, 2.8 miles round trip with 600 ft of gain. Parkind is at the CCC Trail trailhead on the Middle Fork Road. The trail goes up the CCC Trail for about 1/2 mile, before turning to the right for the Pratt Climbing Area and the Pratt Balcony, there is no signage for the trail junction. The trail goes through a gorgeous forest up to the balcony where there are two different view areas.
Views in the forest
The first viewpoint, looking across the Middle Fork of the Snoqualmie River to Russian Butte
The second viewpoint, looking through the trees towards Garfield Mountain, and a zoom of Garfield Mountain
We saw lots of hair ice and some fungi along the trail today
