Gold Creek Pond
If you love to play in the snow, but don’t want to risk getting lost, getting caught in an avalanche, or falling in a tree well then Gold Creek Pond is the place for you. It is a short, flat walk around a pond with pretty views and picture-perfect stops along the way.
Although it is a popular place for photographers, it is a great little spot for the whole family to enjoy a little time outside in the snow together.
Getting there:
Drive Interstate 90 east to Exit 54, 2 miles east of the Snoqualmie Pass summit. Exit I-90, turn north, crossing under the freeway. A few hundred feet north of the highway interchange, turn right onto a narrow paved road (FR 4832) and drive east parallel to the freeway for 1 mile. Turn left on Gold Creek Road (142). Watch out for a few potholes on the unimproved forest road. Turn left in 0.3 mile onto the paved road and into the Gold Creek Pond parking lot.
