Best Time to Camp at Kaner Flat Group Site

Experience the dramatic seasonal transformation of the Cascades, where summer bathes the campground in golden sunshine and warm temperatures perfect for outdoor adventures. As winter arrives, the landscape transforms into a pristine wonderland beneath crisp, clear skies and fresh snowfall. This diverse climate zone showcases nature's extremes—from the snow-laden Cascade Crest receiving up to 140 inches of precipitation annually to the rain-shadow effect creating near-desert conditions with just 10 inches on the eastern slopes.
