The Lookout tower at the top.
A great hike to do with kids. A bit steep for kids but manageable. We got there around 4:30 pm so we didn't encounter too many folks. My 5-yr daughter absolutely loved the trail run down all the way. Of course I was there to help her with some of the tricky steep spots.

The views today were excellent from the lookout. Had a little snack on the picnic table at the base of the lookout tower and then headed 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.
