The trail is usually snow covered until midsummer. Expect a strenuous hike to a very crowded site in the summer. Climb through beautiful old-growth forest surrounding heather-covered hummocks to the rocky summit and discover an incredible panoramic view of the Puget Sound lowlands and the Cascade and Olympic Mountains.
The lookout was originally built in 1918 and rebuilt by the Everett Mountaineers in 1990. For more information about volunteering or maintaining this facility contact the Everett Mountaineers.
