Senior Pilgrimage focuses on self-reflection and preparation for students' final year on campus. Senior embark on a day-long, 15-mile hike on the Snoqualmie Valley Trail from Snoqualmie Falls to Carnation. The hike is led by students and is interspersed with prayer, presentations by members of the senior class on topics related to faith and spirituality, discussion, activities and games. On the hike, students carry the Senior Pilgrimage Cross which resides in the Chapel during the school year. The cross displays a pendant from every senior class that has completed the pilgrimage since 1982, the first year the pilgrimage took place.
