so the wife and i are planning on spending the long holiday weekend in the North Cascades, WA region around Winthrop... any suggestions for great hikes or places to shoot?

i've already read that the Patterson Mountain Loop and Maple Pass Loop are great hikes... got any other suggestions? we're only bringing gear for day hikes, so i'd say our limit would be in the 10 mile range.

this will be our first time in the area, so any tips would be much appreciated!
