VIDEO: Camping - Leavenworth - Fish Dam - Railroad Power Station - GolfingThis is the second video taking my Nephew camping around Lake Wenatchee. He had never seen Leavenworth, WA, a Bavarian Themed Tourist Trap. We then went sight seeing to an old dam build in 1903 for the Great Northern RR Electric Locomotives traveling through the old 3 mile Stevens Pass Tunnel until 1929. The power generators are long gone but the dam remains and a newer fish ladder and research facility occupy the location now. After that, I take to Kahler Glen for 9 holes of golf. After that, we return to camp and cook steaks and potatoes in the campfire. Iron Truck Camper Chef Challenge Feeding My Nephew Breakfast And Dinner We had a great time and you can see there are lots of activities around Lake Wenatchee.

Looks like you had a good time. We also like Leavenworth and the Lake Wenatchee area. We are heading up there on Monday as we like to wait until the week-enders are gone. We also like the Nason Creek campground. There are several campsites right on the river and we get half price with our senior pass.

They do each have their features. Must be 40 years since I last played golf in Chelan. Have yourself a great weekend. I'm heading to near Hood River at Trout Lake, WA. To work but also get some great fishing in. Take care...

In less than three weeks, we will be in that area too. This weekend we "dry camped" for half and "wet camped" for the the remainder - The seasons are changing.

Beautiful area, although I prefer lakes where I can swim. We catch cancellation at Alpine View Park in Leavenworth this July, but they are book till January, so if you go there - make your reservation early.

We have spent summer weekends at our Lake Wenatchee cabin since 1959 to 1994 and it is a beautiful lake or like the Bearing sea at times so now should be an awesome for camping in an RV.

Colors were nice. The Old Chumstick Highway was colorful too, worthy of a drive as is driving out to the end of pavement on thr Old Wenatchee Highway on the North side of the lake. Enjoy your trip.

Thanks Camper Jeff and Kelli...the drive through Tumwater canyon was colorful with orange, yellow, red, and green leaves. We may drive through Chumstick to see more of what you have seen.
Hope you get good fishing at Hood River.

I was wondering later if Tumwater Canyon is Highway 2 or the Valley the Chumstick Highway is in. Either road equals enjoyment.
I'm actually working putting up a steel frame building but we will go 17 miles to some decent fishing at Goose Lake.
Enjoy your trip.

We also spent a couple days in Leavenworth. Too touristy for me. Back at I90, poor signs and we headed west rather than east on I90. At the 1stexit, there was a large building—Fruit and Antiques. Bought some delicious cherries. Was the highlight of the trip.
