Alpine Lookout — Saturday, Sep. 7, 2019

Central Cascades > Stevens Pass - East
First view of the lookout at 4.1 miles.

Road: As mentioned in an earlier trip report, there is a decent-sized washout/dip. I took it slow in a high clearance SUV and was fine. I don't know if a smaller vehicle would do as well. 

Trail: It was a steady climb up the first few miles. Once higher up, there were some flatter parts of the trail with gorgeous views. At about 4.1 miles, you'll get a view of the lookout. Be aware of dirt bikes. 

Lookout: The lookout was closed. However, I sat on the stairs for lunch and enjoyed the view.

Overall, a beautiful trail and rad lookout. Be sure to bring lots of water. On a Saturday, only saw several other hikers, very peaceful. 

Beautiful foliage along trail.
Alpine Lookout!
Just a taste of the views from the Lookout.
