Author Bob Mooers has scouted out the Puget Sound basin, discovering the best places to hike when the Cascades and Olympics are blanketed in white. With these mountain, foothill, and island views, hiking can be a year-round adventure.

For hiking enthusiasts, northwestern Washington can be frustrating in winter, when favorite trails are socked in with snow and rewarding views seem as remote as the blooming of next spring's wild flowers. But don't pack away those hiking boots too soon. This guide leads hikers to exhilarating views even in winter -- from ridgetops and clifftops, summits and shoreline bluffs, peaks and high perches.
