Garfield Ledges

Snoqualmie Region

updated 1 month ago

As of February 7, 2026, Garfield Ledges trail is in great shape, recently cleared of loose rocks. However, the road to the trailhead is rough and requires medium to high clearance, with significant potholes reported on December 31, 2025, and February 6, 2026. Some reports conflict on road conditions past the bridge, with one stating significant potholes on December 31st and another recommending parking at the Middle Fork trailhead due to unpleasant potholes on February 6th. The Middle Fork Snoqualmie Road was closed at the Lake Dorothy Road Fork on January 11, 2026. A few downed trees and branches have been noted, but are generally easy to navigate. No snow was reported as of December 31, 2025.

I wanted to do a short hike to match the short day. 99% of the road to the trailhead is paved (with a lot of branches and the remains of chainsawed trees strewn all over the road, so go slow)! But as ...
