Bulger Type: Scramble(s)

A long hike and scramble to attain the summit of a Washington’s Mount Cashmere If you can get the permits, make it two days. One is tough.

Saska, Cardinal and Emerald are a lot of fun, but they are not easy to access. Expect a lot of work with a huge payoff.

Cannon Mountain is one of the least interesting of the Bulgers. Simple climb, excellent view

Come to Black Peak for the 17th tallest peak in Washington. Prepare for the final ridge walk, its a doozy.

While they may not be some of the hardest in Washington’s top 100, Big Craggy and West Craggy are a challenging one day adventure.

Many call Abernathy peak the easiest of the Bulger Peaks. That does not make it an easy climb. Especially during a heat wave like when I decided to take it on.

The approach to Argonaut peak is a bit of a Brush Bash. But it is the last 200-300ft that will challenge most climbers.
