Headed out for Ed’s Trail on Silver Star Mountain in Washington Sunday morning. The last 8-10 miles were 4-wheel drive, but otherwise fairly easy to get to. We were promised amazing views of Mt St Helens and other peaks + load of wildflowers and this trail really delivered! There was a steady uphill grade along the ridge lines with 2 spots that were more of a scramble/climb and then and easy wide downhill on a jeep path for the return. Just under 5 miles round trip, almost all exposed sunlight.
