Skagit Tours is calling your name
Whether it’s your first time or you haven’t visited in a while, an excursion with Skagit Tours should be on your summer travel list.
Just a scenic drive away from Seattle, Skagit Tours offers morning and afternoon boat tours aboard the Alice Ross IV on the glacier-fed waters of Diablo Lake. The tours showcase your utility’s longstanding dedication to producing clean, carbon-free energy while protecting cultural and natural resources as well as the spectacular scenery in one of the nation’s most picturesque parks. Also, for the first time in two years, the classic Dam Good Chicken Dinner is back at the Gorge Inn in Newhalem, serving tradition on a platter with our famous meal.
This year’s tour season runs from late June through Labor Day. Start planning your North Cascades adventure today at skagittours.com or call (360) 854-2589.
