About an hour from Seattle and Everett lies one of the most rugged wild landscapes in the Cascade Mountains: The Skykomish Wild Country (also known as "Wild Sky" country) in the heart of the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest, just north of the Stevens Pass Highway. The drama of the area’s steep mountains rising from rich, old growth forests is matched by few places on earth. This marks the first time a wilderness area would include lowland forests, valleys, and streams. Read about the natural history of the area, hike the trails from Everett/Seattle to Leavenworth, or simply enjoy the view along the drive with the guidebook sure to become a classic.
