And at the time of this post, intermittent inaccessibility by foot traffic past milepost 20.Īnyway, you’re probably wondering what other trips you could do in the North Cascades. So I guess your best bet is to go extra early and camp outside the Wilderness Information Center in Marblemount the day before you want to start (just kidding…kind of).Īnd this year, 2021, the Cascade River Road is having a rough time between avalanche debris and water damage to the road, leaving it inaccessible by car past milepost 18, adding 5 miles to the Cascade Pass Trailhead each way. And even if you’re going for walk-up permits, those overnight permits for Pelton Basin or Sahale Glacier still go quick because you can get permits for the day-of or next day start. You can read all about the reservation system here on their website. And if you’re like me and always forget about permits, then you have to resort to walk-up permits in the North Cascades National Park (NCNP). But getting a permit to camp there can be quite difficult since you first have to remember to apply for the lottery by March 15 for the rest of the season. But it’s so well known for its beautiful scenery.
