Chelan
|
|
|
| |
Small town Chelan is located at the tail-end of Lake Chelan, east of
the Cascades. With mild temperatures and 55-miles of recreational
water, the area is a popular destination in the summer. One of the
deepest lakes in America, Lake Chelan is slow to warm to swimming
temperatures, but recreational boaters and fisherman aren't usually
deterred. Reel in salmon, trout, bass or burbot and throw some fresh
fish filets on the grill for dinner. Book a guide for some angling
time on the Colombia River if you don't have access to your own boat. |

Seattle
|
Population: 580,000
|
|
| |
Seattle's skyline is at its best when the sun begins to sink into
Puget Sound. The harbor takes on the colors of sunset and glass
office buildings grow bright with blinding intensity before night
descends on the city, revealing the Space Needle's graceful
silhouette. Seattle is a cosmopolitan city - the modern coffee craze
was born here in this bustling commercial port city. Today, the arts
thrive in Seattle and outdoor pursuits are an integral part of city
life. Seattle is sophisticated yet earthy, a mix of martini's,
urban-hip, runners and Recreational Equipment Inc.(REI), headquartered
here. While the proliferation of downtown parks means that a stretch
of grass is never far away, Seattle's infamous rain sometimes drives
the public indoors to the numerous educational and entertaining
attractions that make Seattle such a great destination. |

Wenatchee
|
Population: 280,000
|
|
| |
Wenatchee is all about apples. An early settler planted the first apple orchard in 1872 ala Johnny Appleseed and the region has remained fruitful ever since. Located on the west bank of the Colombia River, Wenatchee gets a lot of sunshine so most visitors head for Walla Walla Point Park or Rock Island Hydro Park to take a dip in the river or put in a boat. In town, rent bikes and follow the Apple Capital Recreation Loop Trail along the river. |
