We all Know Why!

One of the HARDEST HIKES in the United States… 📍 The Enchantments Traverse 🧡 FOLLOW @gwynandami for more epic Pacific Northwest adventure travel inspiration. Here’s the trail details ⤵️ 📍 Location: Alpine Lakes Wilderness, Washington 📏 Distance: 21 miles (round trip) ⛰️ Elevation: 5,000 foot gain and 7,000 foot loss. 🥾 This is a point to point trail, meaning you start and end at different locations. ⚠️ Free day use permits are required, and can be aquired at the trailhead. Please #leavenotrace by staying on trail and packing out everything you pack in (even apple cores and orange peels!). 🌻 📸 Video clips are from August. Are the Enchantments on your bucket list? Whether it’s 1 mile or 40, what is the longest day hike you’ve ever done? 👇🏼✨ #explorewashington #pacificnorthwest #pnw #alpinelakes #theenchantments #alpinelakeswilderness | best hikes in the PNW | alpine lakes hike | Pacific Northwest hikes

🥾 After a morning of slogging through the snow ❄️ and plunging through a small but brisk creek 🏞️ it was time to dry out my shoes, socks, and dampened pants. 👟 🧦 👖

Since we had a long day of hiking still to come we sat on this sun ☀️ warmed rock 🪨 to enjoy brunch. On this day I enjoyed a homemade veggie polenta egg scramble burrito. Man was it tasty!

A typical strategy for me in the cold is to heat water during morning packup. Place meal into insulated container 🫙 then cover with hot water and start hiking 🏔️ Usually an hour-ish into my morning walk I’ll sit on a rock 🪨 and enjoy my meal 🍲 while basking in the sunshine ☀️

I’m still experimenting with getting the perfect cooking and dehydrating technique for eggs 🍳 For 10 years I’d never been able to dehydrate eggs but I learned a secret 🤫 Mix the egg 🥚 with either potato 🥔 or corn 🌽 scramble and place in the dehydrator.

To my scramble I usually add red bell pepper, brocolli, and spinach. Flavor it with plenty of onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. If your feeling fancy add to this black beans, salsa, and cilantro. If you’re not into cold tortillas (this has taken me a long time) then take tortilla chips and crunch a few into your meal as you eat. This is actually my preferred way to enjoy scrambles, dips, and chilies on the trail. The fresh crunch is amazing!
