Iron
Goat Trail (page 3)
|
The western
end of the Iron Goat has much
denser
forest growth than the eastern section; obscuring historic features and
lessening photo opportunities. (All photos from 2002.) |
Switchback in upbound trail

Tunnel entrance.

Looking into west end of 1300 ft Windy Tunnel. |
Waterfall over retaining wall,
avalanche debris, and Steven's Pass
peaks in the background.
|
Lush growth of wild flowers and
7 foot ferns almost
obscure rotting 18" x 18" timbers from former snowshed!
|
Spillway of dam above one of the
backwalls. The dam, discovered
by accident in 1991, held water for use in fighting fires threatening
the wooden snowsheds.
