Heather, Laura and I did the Cantwell Creek Loop. We started up the regular Windy Creek Route, over Foggy Pass and descended down to the Cantwell River. Floated the Cantwell River to the Jack and took out at the bridge over the Jack River in Cantwell. It was a quick, fun overnight trip. Around 20 miles hiking and 20miles to float.
After the 5 mile hike into Windy Creek, we did not follow the narrow ridge down to the East Fork drainage and it was less climbing.....
But, a lot more bushwhacking.
Heading down the final descent to the East Fork, there were a few nice game trails to follow.
We camped at the far end of the drainage before going up Foggy Pass.
The next day we had 10 miles left to hike to the river and 20 mile paddle back to Cantwell.
