Get Inspired on Instagram by Six Hikers We Follow

Love Instagram? We do too! You can follow us @washingtontrails and use the hashtag #washingtontrails to share your amazing adventures with us. Here are a few Instagrammers we follow who take some fantastic photos of trails, peaks and everything in between:

Photographer, WTA volunteer and adventurer Karen Wang mixes up gorgeous backcountry landscapes with the perfect recipe of food, friends and funny.


Photographer and Bellingham-based trail volunteer Derek Posey has a knack for capturing the particular feeling of hiking Pacific Northwest trails. Check this feed for a fix of fresh air/green.

Want a reliable feed of local summits, scrambles and mountain dog pics? Follow the formative adventures of trip reporter (onehikeaweek) and mountaineer John Porter.

We’re pretty sure that photographer and adventurer Beau Ramsey just hops from one summit to another, so frequently is he found on top of them.

Regular volunteer and Seattlite Andrew Lee’s motto: “Get outside, walk a trail, seek nature, volunteer in your community; and just give all you can.”

Count on Spokane-based trip reporter Rose Freeman for trail views from all over the state, some even featuring her signature hiking mugs.

We hope these awesome Instagrammers inspire you to get out and snap some shots of your own!
