A photographic record of our travels on the Great Northern Railway Cascade Division. Saturday, June 2, 2012. While hiking on the Iron Goat Trail a few years ago I stopped at Windy Point to get a picture of the west portal of the Cascade Tunnel near Scenic.Just above the tunnel entrance is an area of half century-old fir trees surrounded by old growth forest. The A.Guthrie construction camp was located here during construction of the tunnel from 1926-1929. A Lee Pickett photo of the west portal, May 1926.

A photographic record of our travels on the Great Northern Railway Cascade Division. Tuesday, April 3, 2012. Forest Service Road 6066. About two miles east of the Skykomish Ranger Station is Road 6066. I have been meaning to drive up the road for a while now, after studying old maps and photographs it appears to be an old logging railroad. This 1933 photo from the Skykomish Historical Society.
