Lake Wenatchee Freezes!
2008-01-28 16:43:00 According to www.LakeWenatcheeInfo.com Lake Wenatchee has frozen from shore to shore. I have been seeing the local rivers freeze up and was wondering about the big lake. It has been below zero in the mornings at my house for the past week, though it's 10 degrees warmer now.I have two suggestions for my readers.1. Please respect the fragility of the frozen lake. Temps change, some ice is thicker than others. Please be careful as a frozen lake can be a dangerous place.2. Add www.Lakewenatcheeinfo.com to your feed reader. I am up at Lake Wenatchee all the time, but their blog is still a great source of news for me.

Leavenworth real estate and Lake Wenatchee still in demand
2008-01-11 02:54:00 Leavenworth real estate and real estate in the Lake Wenatchee area remain in high demand despite recent news about slowdowns elsewhere.Two areas that I have seen strong interest in over the past few years are waterfront homes and condos at Kahler Glen.Waterfront homes range from cabins on Lake Wenatchee and Fish Lake to homes on the Wenatchee River or Icicle Creek. Currently there are only a handful of waterfront homes available in The Leavenworth area.Kahler Glen condos have remained a hot commodity over the past two years. Certainly I remember 2004 when you couldn't give them away for $175,000, but 2008 is a different story. The last one sold in the spring of 2007 for $325,000 and I expect the next will be at least $350,000. Buyers always ask about other condominium options at Lake Wenatchee or Stevens Pass. The truth is that Kahler Glen has the only condos near Lake Wenatchee and no projects are scheduled in the area.I am starting to add names to my list of buyers for both water...
Lake Wenatchee Open for Skiing
2007-12-08 20:14:00 I just received an email from my good friends at Lake Wenatchee State Park. They are now open for nordic skiing, snowshoeing and sledding. As was mentioned earlier, the Nason Ridge trails are closed this year. I won't post these updates weekly, but you can get these emailed directly to you from the park if you want.(Please note that while the date below says December 10, I received it on the morning of December 8)Lake Wenatchee State Park(509-763-3101)Cross Country Ski Trail Information Date: December 10 Time: 9 a.m. Temp / Precip: 23 degrees, clear General Trail Conditions: One recent heavy snowfall has provided sufficient snow for grooming, though not enough for thorough “grading” of trails.

Mike Irwin Wenatchee Photographer- The 10 Questions Interview
2007-12-04 01:40:00 Mike Irwin is a Wenatchee area photographer. I met him through one of his current gigs shooting photos of houses for TourFactory, the provider I use for the virtual tours of my real estate listings. Mike has shot a couple of tours for me in the Leavenworth area. He can be found on the web at www.Irwinfoto.com 1. Tell us about your background. You started in journalism? I was born into a newspaper family and never really emerged from it. My father owned and operated two weeklies down in south Louisiana. At age 6 or 7, I was hanging out in the backshop with the typesetters and pressmen and, by age 10, was pretty good at flipping huge sheets of newsprint into the old flatbed press. When we converted to cold type -- computerized typesetting -- I soaked up all the early technology and was fascinated by it. It seemed miraculous. Through high school, I was part of our family's newspaper design team -- grocery store ads and special sections -- but soon fell in love with photography. The...
Lake Wenatchee Ski News
2007-11-05 23:02:00 Lake Wenatchee XC Ski News from Lake Wenatchee State Park Hello everyone, We're starting out the season with some unfortunate news. We will have no trails groomed out Nason Ridge this season due to logging on Longview Timber Company lands which begin immediately South of Kahler Glen Golf course and include most all the trail system "up top". We will be grooming our "core trails", including 8k in the South Park, 5.3k in the North (limited skate lanes), and 8k at Chiwawa See&Ski (skate lane full distance). Though we never know for certain year-to-year, Longview believes the logging will be completed this season and access to their land next season will likely resume. Many thanks to Longview Timber Company for allowing access to their land in the past, and we hope to be skiing up there next year!Thanks, Rick Halstead Park Manager Lake Wenatchee State Park

Lake Wenatchee Real Estate
2007-08-24 23:16:00 Real Estate at Lake Wenatchee and Fish Lake has really taken off in the last decade. Lake Wenatchee's popularity comes from the wealth of recreational opportunities (boating, fishing, wind surfing, hiking, snowmobiling, skiing, golfing) and it's proximity to the Seattle area.I wrote about Fish Lake real estate in a previous post, so this article will be mostly about Lake Wenatchee.There are two roads that skirt Lake Wenatchee and serve as separate neighborhoods. Cedar Brae (aka South Shore road) runs along the South Shore. It starts at the South entrance of Lake Wenatchee State Park and passes Kahler Glen Golf Club. At the other end of the road is Camp Zanika Lache, a Campfire Camp, a number of cabins on leased Forest Service land, and a trail to Hidden Lake. On the north side of the lake, North Shore Drive runs from the Lake Wenatchee Highway near the YMCA camp to near the White River road near the former site of the Cougar Inn. The north shore of Lake Wenatchee is often preferre...
Wenatchee- It's not easy being green
2007-03-22 16:05:00 Thanks to Andy Dappen of WenatcheeOutdoors.org for letting me post this great article. When I read the front page news about a "Green Wenatchee" I too was a little disturbed. Ten Reasons We're Not No. Five Andy Dappen If only it were true. Unfortunately, all I can say about the March 2007 issue of Country Home magazine that ranked Wenatchee as the fifth greenest city in America is, “What were they smoking?” An odd amalgamation of statistics compiled by those who don’t live here have found Wenatchee wonderfully green, but rather than congratulating ourselves and then turning our patted backs from some real environmental transgressions, we still have very basic ground to cover to deserve our ranking. Here are ten reasons we’re not No. 5: 1) We can’t even place colored glass in our curbside recycling bin. Microbrews and recycling go hand-in-hand. Did you know that the New Belgium Brewing Company (makers of Fat Tire Beer) generates all the energy used to make their beer...
