Near the top, after the steep half mile or so, near the Rock Trail junction.
Sunny day beckoned my Boston Terriers and me to this hike; we arrived at the trailhead at around 9:15AM or so. Not much to add to the recent reports other than to expect a few mudholes about halfway through the hike and be prepared for a rooty and sometimes steep climb in the final half mile.
On the way down I passed several dozen hikers heading up at around 11AM. We made it back to the car before noon.
Oyster Dome is a great spring hike when you are waiting for the snows in the Cascade to retreat; it offers a great vista toward the San Juan Islands.
