This is our favorite day hike within about 90 minutes of the house. The Mountain Loop Highway is a great area for hiking, but Vesper Peak is the best hike of the group (these hosts opinions). Like many hikes in the region, it's fairly strenuous. But the views are incredible all the way up, with a huge panorama from the top.
Not worth it on a rainy day.

Great for less than sunny days and an easy enough hike for children. Great views of the stream on the way up and the falls at the end. A little over an hour drive from our cabin.

There is nothing in this world that quite compares to the Enchantment Lakes. Can be through-hiked in one long day, but you'd better be an experienced hiker who doesn't mind a bit of scrambling up and over granite. Better yet, make a reservation for a permit, though these must be booked months in advance.
Don't have a whole day? Hike 8 miles to Colchuck Lake and turn around for a taste of the experience. Though there is nothing like the core!

You only have to walk a few hundred feet to see the massive falls. A great trip with young kids. Great on rainy days!
There is a fancy restaurant on site. I've never been. Let us know what you think if you end up going!

You have to park a mile away, but this is a great area for bird nerds and an easy walk for children.
Tip: drop the kids off with one parent, have the other drop off the car. Lock it up tight!

Sightseeing
In Fremont (the center of the universe), you'll find a giant troll under the bridge, a statue of Lenin, huge ivy dinosaurs, and some of the best chocolate around. Also check out the Fremont Vintage Mall.

Order food and drinks while you watch the latest movies. Not many places you can do this around Seattle, and this one is within walking distance (1.3 miles) of the Chalet, in case you have a few too many!

Wine is incredible, and the grounds and tasting room are beautiful. You won't be disappointed!

Emily's stepdad is head winemaker here. But again, this place speaks for itself. One of the only tasting rooms in Seattle, with great views and fantastic restaurant options around.

Rum is good. Puget Sound Rum is better. Stop by my friend Matt's other baby - Four Leaf Spirits. Try the C&C - a honey-sweetened rum - with fresh-squeezed lime and coconut soda (la croix) over ice. Perfect for a hot day, or the other 360 days each year we wish were hot days.
Mention that Hans sent you, and get a free tasting!

This place is within walking distance from the cabin, and has great prices and selection. Very friendly staff. Everything you need whether it's your first time, or whether you're a seasoned veteran. Not a smoker? Plenty of sweet treats for you to try - cookies, candies, sodas, etc.
