Peggy's Pond
Snoqualmie Region
updated 1 month ago
The trail to Peggy's Pond presents some navigation challenges, particularly in sections where it can be unclear which path to take. It is generally advised to stay higher on the ridgeline where the trail is more defined and less prone to confusion R3, R5, R6. While the road to the trailhead is generally suitable for most vehicles, there are sections of washboard and rough patches that require caution and may slow your progress R7. Bugs can be an annoyance, especially in the evenings or when there is no wind R3, R5, R6, R7, R8, though reports from late July and early September suggest they may be less of an issue R1, R2.
