Don&#8217;t miss these hikes.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Summer in the PNW is something to get really excited about. After all the doom and gloom, the sun starts peeking out, the wildflowers bloom, and it\u2019s no longer dark around 4 pm! The season is glorious and we\u2019ve been trying to spend as much time outside and soak in as much sun as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A couple of weeks ago, we hit the trails in search of some wildflowers! We usually have the worst luck with timing, and made it to certain spots a day or two late, but we still managed to find some. Since wildflower season comes later&nbsp;in the PNW, we started anticipating it after seeing our friends post about Cali\u2019s superbloom. We were determined not to miss it this year. After a long, strenuous hike, we were met with an endless field of beautiful yellow flowers!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1620\" src=\"https:\/\/localadventurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/washington-oregon-wildflowers.jpg\" alt=\"Best Hikes to See Washington and Oregon Wildflowers\" class=\"wp-image-46802\" srcset=\"https:\/\/localadventurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/washington-oregon-wildflowers.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/localadventurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/washington-oregon-wildflowers-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/localadventurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/washington-oregon-wildflowers-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/localadventurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/washington-oregon-wildflowers-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/localadventurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/washington-oregon-wildflowers-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/localadventurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/washington-oregon-wildflowers-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/localadventurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/washington-oregon-wildflowers-610x915.jpg 610w, https:\/\/localadventurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/washington-oregon-wildflowers-390x585.jpg 390w, https:\/\/localadventurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/washington-oregon-wildflowers-260x390.jpg 260w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-background\" style=\"padding: 15px;font-size:12px;background-color:#f2f4f7;text-align:center;\"><em>This post may contain affiliate links, where we receive a small commission on sales of the products that are linked at no additional cost to you.
