Description:

Edit

From the outset, this trail ascends steep wooded slopes interspersed with broad open meadows. Near the top, rocky crags are covered with many species of alpine plants and offers spectacular spring color. Remains of the Three Pyramids Lookout, built in 1934, lay scattered about the peak. Impressive panoramic views of the Cascades can be had from here.
