Twice a year in the spring then summer, Tony Davey, an artist and owner ofFused art gallery in Roslyn, carefully crafts then hides small, rectangularglass ornaments all around town and asks locals and visitors to do theirbest to find them. Davey said it’s just a way to get people more interestedin exploring his town. “It’s just to kind of encourage people to hang aroundtown, look around a little bit more and open their eyes to a bunch ofthings,” he explained. “It’s something to really have fun with.” The piecescome in a wide variety of colors and are decorated with the word ‘Roslyn’in stylized text along with the date to remind people of their stay in town.If you spot one of these ornaments, it’s yours to keep – Roslyn’s gift to you.Besides getting people to explore the city, Davey also hopes seeing andfinding the ornaments gets people inspired to create their own art, espe-cially at his shop where he teaches glass art.

Traditionally, Cle Elum’s Carpenter House Museum has focused on the Carpenter family, in-cluding Frank Carpenter, a mayor of Cle Elum who built the house in 1914, but on July 4, 2015,the society opened an all-new exhibit on the third floor to widen its scope and feature more ofthe local community’s history, including the Prohibition, early pioneers, businesses, education,transportation, the fires of 1891 and 1918 and Cle Elum’s red light district.

The rest of the museum has plenty to offer, as well. Visitors can examine the Carpenter family’sclothing, furniture, books, paintings, dinnerware and many other artifacts that have been pre-served “in their natural habitat” since 1989 when the last surviving Carpenter descendant donatedthe home and its furnishings to the society.

The museum also serves as the gallery for High Country Artists (highcountryartists.com), whorotate their exhibits of featured local artists monthly. The museum is located at 302 West Third Street in Cle Elum. It’s open Friday through Sundayfrom noon to 4 p.m. For more info visit highcountryartists.com or nkcmuseums.org.

Winter recreation plays astrong role in CentralCascades history, as itdoes today. Foundingmembers of the SummitSki Club (later known asthe Cle Elum Ski Club)started the organizationto teach area youngpeople how to ski. Theywanted to promote thearea's wonderland ofwinter sports too. Clubmembers made their ownskis because there wereno local places to buy skiequipment at that time.

Once known as ‘A Skier’s Paradise’, the region hosted a popular ski jumpcompetition in the 1920s through the early 1930s. Charlene Kauzlarich of the local historical society places a primitive set of skis and a pair of ski boots oncebelonging to Hans Iverson, who loved the Cle Elum area he made his home in the1920s because it reminded him of his home back in Norway. He was a ski "yumper"in the old country and happy that he could continue doing so here. These are a fewof the antiquities and photos on display at the museum. Jim Fossett photo

Traveling along the back roads of Kittitas County you’ll find over 100barns and other significant buildings (some dating back over a century)decorated with large, painted wooden quilt blocks – often inspired by afamily heirloom quilt. The collection comprises one of the county’s mostpopular trails. A beautiful trail map is available at Chamber of Commercevisitor centers in Ellensburg and Cle Elum and at local museums. A bioon each site gives those taking the self-guided driving tour a glimpseinto the significance of the chosen quilt block. The map also provides alook at area events, the names of the 24 volunteers who helped hangthe quilts, names of sponsors and a list of historical buildings in the re-gion with photographs of each. All totaled, to prepare and hang over 100quilts and produce the map, this grass-roots folk-art project requiredover 12,000 hours of volunteer work. For historical info on the quilts andmore about how you can get involved, visit BarnQuiltsWashington.org.

Roslyn Cemetery, nestled in the hills above Roslyn, is a reflection of therich ethnic mix of people who settled in the region beginning around1886. Clustered serenely on 15 acres of woods and hills are 26 separatecemeteries. Since 1887, land was donated by or was purchased from theNorthern Pacific by fraternal ethnic and civic organizations for burial oftheir deceased members. At least 24 nationalities are represented withinthe nearly 5,000 graves. The cemeteries were listed on the National HistoricRegister in 1978. Burial customs from those countries can be observedtoday. Many graves seem to be above the ground due to the placement ofcurbings. Footstones are common, placed with the hope that in more afflu-ent times a headstone could be purchased and erected. The ornate and pic-turesque fences around some plots were originally erected to protect thesite from foraging cattle and wildlife. The Italians and Yugoslavians, especially,used elaborate markers: Icons of the departed, pictures encased in ceramicand embedded in the tombstones were used quite frequently. A newermethod of adding a likeness of the deceased to the stone is photo etching.There are several fine examples of this in the Memorial Garden section of thecemeteries. In part, the uniqueness of Roslyn’s historical cemeteries is that for most sections perpetualcare existed only as long as the participating organizations of families were around. In recent years,volunteers have expended thousands of hours to maintain and beautify the grounds.

The Central Cascades tend to get windy, especially the further east you travel through the Kittitas County Valley, and Puget Sound En-ergy decided to take advantage of that by building the second largest wind farm in the state between Kittitas and Vantage in thehills above the Vantage Highway. The Wild Horse Wind and Solar Facility isn’t just massive in scale, with the capacity to generate 273megawatts, but it’s also unique in that it allows tours and other recreational activities throughout spring, summer and fall betweenApril 1 and Nov. 15. Special tours during the winter months are available by calling 509-925-3131 if you’re not one of the 18,000 visitorsthe center hosts every season. The tour gives you an up close and personal look at the 221 feet high, 104 ton towers. You get to goright inside one during the daily tour and also get to peek at some of the internal components that make them tick with the conven-ience of standing firmly on the ground. Besides tours, PSE also offers special events and even grants written permission to hike, birdwatch, ride horses and take part in other non-hunting recreational activities between April 1 and Nov. 30. Hunting is allowed with aspecial reservation from the Washington Dept. of Fish and Wildlife at wdfw.wa.gov/hunting/hunting_access/private_lands/type/56/.More information on the Wild Horse facility is available at pse.com/inyourcommunity/ToursandRecreation/WildHorse

COAL MINES TRAILOne of the most accessible trails is also one of themost historic. The 4.7-mile Coal Mines Trail stretchesfrom Cle Elum to Roslyn then Ronald was used bycoal miners every day to get to work before the ad-vent of the automobile. It’s perfect for walking thedogs, jogging, riding bikes and horses or simply tak-ing a casual stroll.

PACIFIC CREST TRAIL J SECTIONThis 75-mile trail presents a significant challenge andcuts through the Alpine Lakes Wilderness betweenSnoqualmie Pass and Stevens Pass. Hikers pass atleast a dozen lakes while traversing 16,000 total feetof elevation gain and loss. Make sure to get a mapand additional information to prepare for this majorhike from pcta.org.

IRON HORSE STATE PARK TRAILThis trail requires a Discover Pass or a day pass pur-chased at the pay station at the Hyak trailhead. The110-mile trail is also known as the John Wayne Pio-neer Trail and features a two-mile section throughthe old Snoqualmie train tunnel so make sure tobring a flashlight and maybe even a jacket! The darkpassage is worth traveling through as you’ll be re-warded with some fine views of the Cascade Moun-tains. The trail can be accessed from I-90 Exit 54 andtaking SR-906. Search wta.org for more information.

SOUTH CLE ELUM DEPOT INTERPRETIVE TRAILThis easy access trail is 2,200-feet long and provides18 stops to take a breather and learn about the his-toric Milwaukee Railroad Depot in the southwest cor-ner of South Cle Elum at 801 Milwaukee Road. Thetrail is ADA-accessible.

RED TOP LOOKOUT TRAILThe 4 million acre Okanogan-Wenatchee NationalForest is east of Cle Elum along Highway 97. With allthat precious forest land, someone made the wise de-cision to build a wildfire lookout at the top of Red TopMountain, which is still in use today but is also abreathtaking landmark of the trail accessible by fol-lowing the directions at wta.org/go-hiking/hikes/red-top-lookout. The steep but short trail presentsamazing views of the Stuart Mountain Range, the Kit-titas Valley and forest lands as far as the eye can see.
