You want views? We got views. All that's needed is a steep trail and a former fire-lookout site, which is exactly what Goat Peak offers. The peak is the highest point on the long spine of American Ridge, with views galore. Look north to the sheer cliffs of Fifes Peaks. Look south to the blue waters of Bumping Lake, the stark summit of Mount Aix, and beyond to the snow-rimmed peak of Mount Adams. To the west, Mount Rainier stands proud as the monarch of the Cascades. The Goat Peak Trail also boasts rich scenery close at hand, with a bounty of wildflowers and wildlife.
