Explore the North Cascades with Seattle Overland
Discover the "American Alps"—a land of jagged peaks, 300+ glaciers, and turquoise alpine lakes. At Seattle Overland, we provide the ultimate backcountry vessel: fully decked-out Jeep Campers designed to take you where the pavement ends and the adventure begins.
Why the North Cascades?
The North Cascades National Park is one of the most rugged and least-visited national parks in the lower 48, making it a paradise for those who crave solitude and raw natural beauty. With our Jeeps, you aren't just visiting; you're living in the heart of the wild.
Must-Visit Destinations
Diablo Lake Overlook: Famous for its intense turquoise water (caused by "glacial flour"), this is the most iconic photo op in the PNW.
Washington Pass Overlook: Standing at 5,477 feet, this offers a jaw-dropping view of Liberty Bell Mountain and the Early Winters Spires.
Stehekin: A remote village accessible only by foot or boat. Park your Jeep at the trailhead and experience a community truly "off the grid."
Gorge Creek Falls: A stunning 242-foot waterfall visible from a vertiginous pedestrian bridge right off Highway 20.
