KUOW Hike of the Week- Dome Peak


Updated 1-15-2013
This trail is usually snowfree but not this year as we have a much above normal snowpack. Thus, bring snowshoes. What is that giant golf ball? Some suggest it is Ground Based Radar used for National Missle Defense.
Enter contest and win Lantern that converts to flashlight. Rules on the right
