    Exploring Snoqualmie Falls with Kids

    ByMikaela Judd June 5, 2024November 17, 2024

    Iโ€™ve been visiting Snoqualmie Falls since I was a little girl. It was (and still is) one of my momโ€™s go-to activities for out-of-town guests. The drive is beautiful and not too long (itโ€™s just 32 minutes from Seattle with no traffic). Plus, the falls are breathtaking year-round.  Fluctuating with the seasons, the view is…

    ByEmma Burke January 13, 2021February 19, 2025

    UPDATE FEBRUARY 19, 2025 The trailhead for Franklin Falls has been closed due to lack of funding by the federal government. Resting between the north and south lanes of I-90 lies an idyllic scene, full of cedar and pine that seem to stretch miles into the sky and views of the mighty Snoqualmie River. On…

    Visiting Snoqualmie Valley Farm Stands

    ByLauren Lackey July 31, 2020March 16, 2024

    There are few activities available outside of the home for a 93-year-old matriarch who has been self-quarantining since the beginning of January. My grandmotherโ€™s pandemic routine includes waking, dressing, breakfasting, and then alternating between books and television throughout the day and occasionally arranging a new bouquet of flowers my mother brings her once a week…

    Visiting Wallaby Ranch in Fall City

    ByAmy Shull March 18, 2020February 10, 2025

    Wallaby Ranch in Fall City is easily one of the most surprisingly outstanding experiences Iโ€™ve had on my day trips in Washington state. Itโ€™s not every day, month or even year that you get the opportunity to have such an intimate encounter with an animal so traditionally thought of as exotic in our region of…

    Spending a Day in Snoqualmie, Washington

    ByHilary Walesch December 20, 2019February 7, 2025

    Just a 30-minute drive from Seattle brings you to a small town full of big adventures. And when you visit the cute town of Snoqualmie, youโ€™ll find that it’s just minutes away from beautiful hikes like the Snoqualmie Pass and rivers such as the Snoqualmie river.  But as you dig a little deeper, youโ€™ll find…
