  • 6.4 miles roundtrip | 1,500 ft elevation gain
  • The last 17 miles of driving to get here are on a dirt road and very bumpy and slow (expect 30 to 35 mph). Having a high clearance vehicle is preferable but not absolutely necessary.

Cascade Pass.

Option Two

+ Additional Info
  • Link to trailhead click here 
  • At 3.7 miles & 1700 ft elevation gain stop at Cascade Pass or continue on to Sahale Glacier at 5.7 miles and 4000ft of elevation gain. In my opinion, enjoy the view at ~4.5 miles and turn around.
