Towards the beginning of June, Matthew and I took a trip out to visit my parents in Washington State. While we were only there a week, we managed to pack a LOT into those days. Our first full day was spent climbing Mount Quartzite.

Half of the reason I love this hike, is because it is relatively easy. You drive 2/3 of the way up the mountain and then hike the rest of the way. The other reason I love this hike is because the view from the top is amazing!

I’ll let you decide that for yourself. But I must warn you – the pictures do not nearly do it justice.
