Single Creek is a great site to have a look at; camping at Tombstone Prairie Campground is always a pleasant experience. A spree to Pyramid Trail wouldn't be complete without taking a look at McNabb Falls; why not a little side journey to Scar Creek. You completely

All year is a good time in the Central Cascade Range if you go for the outdoors.
