"Maple Pass Trail: 6.5 miles (hard)
This iconic trail is part of the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest and cannot be missed while visiting North Cascades.
Widely known for its stunning fall colors, the Heather Pass to Maple Pass Loop is a challenging route offering incredible views of the Northern Cascades. This loop is very popular.
You start at Rainy Lake Trailhead. There are vault toilets here, and a Northwest Forest Pass is required.
Although this loop can be done in either direction, most hikers choose to go counter-clockwise. This direction makes for a more gradual ascent, and better views of Black Peak as you approach the pass."
