A really pretty hike, despite it being really dry there are some lovely meadows about 1.5 mi in. Saw some deer but no snakes. Pretty exposed so be sure to bring lot's of water and sunscreen. My sedan couldn't make it up the dirt road to the trail head- just not enough clearance so that added an extra 2.5 mi round trip but it wasn't an issue and there was no problem with parking the car off of Wenas road.

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.
