Rattlesnake Ledge, North Bend, Washington

If you live in western Washington, you've probably hiked Rattlesnake Ledge. It's one of the closest hikes to Seattle, it's easy, and has a great view at the top... all of which make it one of the most traveled trails. For these reasons, I often avoid it unless I can get there early and/or if the weather forecast calls for rain. Both those things happened, so Mac, Olivia, and I hit the trail! And lucky for us, the top was quiet and surprisingly dry!
