We decided to do the trail after lunch and by the time we got to Snoqualmie Pass it was raining there. The trail head is easily found, at the end of the long West Summit parking. We waited for half an hour till it stopped and started then. It was cloudy and cold and still a bi drizzling. The view from the ski slopes were very nice, we saw a rainbow and ate some huckleberries, quite bitter though. You cross under three ski lifts, then the trail gets into the forest. We met PCT hiker at the first lake (Beaver Lake) who has been hiking from North California. After beaver Lake the trail descends and you will see soon the lake on your right hand side among the trees. When you are down and the trail flattens again, there is a crossing with sign Lodge Lake to the right. The lake was nice, there was fog coming up from it and when we decided to go back, it was already raining again and it rained all the way back. It is a nice hike even for small kids used to hiking a bit.

Red Top Lookout

Snoqualmie Pass

Whether you're camping near Cle Elum or just want a prime picnic location for a short Saturday hike, you'll only have to climb a mile on this steep, easy-to-follow trail to get stunning views from a fire lookout (and cool alpine outhouse). It can be great for kids, but keep them close on the exposed summit.
