Overlooking Leavenworth
We began our hike at 10:00 AM. The hike started very smoothly with a slight incline for the first 30 minutes and then became a bit more aggresive. It is a beautiful hike. You can see where the forest burnt trees. We were the only ones on the trail with our dog. When we reached the summit the outlook was beautiful. We overlooked all of Leavenworth and the river. We had lunch on top while enjoying the view. It took us about 1 1/2 hours to reach the top and only 45 minutes to get back down.

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.
