Driving Directions: From Seattle take US Highway 2 East just before Leavenworth and go right on Icicle Road and go about 1.4 miles and turn right at the marked Icicle Ridge Trail.
Trail Stats: The trail goes many miles but for this time of the April 2012, you can go about 3 miles (perhaps higher) and about 2800 foot gain (perhaps higher) and it is still snowfree. After that solid snow.
directions are the best estimates that we have so please bring map and compass and or GPS.
