Sunset from Meadowdale Beach.
We decided to try this urban hike in the evening and catch the sunset from Meadowdale Beach. We started the hike about 7:30 PM and finished around 9 PM with twilight to spare, including about 30 minutes of playing at the beach. The parking lot was full at the park so we had to park about two blocks away.

There are no problems with this trail at this time. It is well maintained and in great shape. This is a great hike for kids in the summertime as there is a beach at the end of the downhill trail. If they have any energy left after the uphill return climb to the trailhead, there is a park for them to play at. We hiked the trail in regular walking shoes although you would probably need boots or something sturdy if has been raining. This is a great little urban trail-we are fortunate to have such nice places to hike right in our backyard!

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.
