As Spring days blur into endless starry summer nights, I hope you'll retreat into the piney wilderness with me. After enduring a drafty winter, it's well past time we got our faces into sunshine, feel peat moss beneath our bare feet, and savor this season of growth and renewal. There's no better way to send a refreshing chill down your spine than to dig into the haunted side of the Cascade Mountain Range.
Let's get into it!
Haunted Peaks
It's a fact that the Cascade peaks are haunted. From lost hikers, to murder, to tragic accidents, and risky ventures like mining, these mountains have seen their share of tragedy. Some believe the stone of the mountains absorbed those memories and when conditions are perfect, they play back like a cassette tape.
