  • My inauguration coverage at Copper Creek Hut in Ashford Washington. The Copper Creek Hut is a backcountry retreat run by the Mount Tahoma Trails Association. Their cabins and trail systems are a real treat for people wanting to get out of the city and experience the mountains. Plus, the views are insane! #Rainier #backcountry #Washington #PNW #cabin #WinterWonder #stars
