Instagram Inspiration: Pacific Northwest Hikes

A hike in the Seattle area is a great way escape the bustle and chaos of the city

As the cold winter month of February comes to an close, I can’t help but get excited about the promise of spring in the near future.

Part of what I love so much about living in Seattle is the ease of escaping the city and finding yourself in what feels like remote wilderness. The sweeping, picturesque views of snowy peaks, fluffy evergreen trees and clear lakes are a regional treat that I can’t wait to explore when the weather starts to clear up. 

The pictures from these hikers show that they understand very well that a day in the mountains can be magic. Follow their Instagram accounts and get inspired to lace up your hiking boots and get some fresh air. The stunning views are too good to miss!
