Sahale Glacier Camp — North Cascades National Park
Reviewed Sep. 27, 2016

Not an easy hike, but views totally worth it!

Gorgeous backcountry campground, complete with composting toilet with the best view ever! Many of the sites sit on top of glacial moraines and are walled in with rocks to reduce wind. Water is easy access from meltwater from snow and glacier. No fire pits available. This is the perfect site for a medium sized group, with a number of “tucked away” spots for individuals, couples, etc. The views of the glacially carved valleys and multiple glaciers/snowfields is fantastic. Bear canisters are required, as there are no trees in this alpine environment. While we didn’t see any bears, mountain goats and mice were prevalent. Cost=free! Permit required from NOCA Wilderness Information Center in Marblemount.
