Drove up via the directions in this description and parked at the spur road just below the summit where the cell tower is now. Hiked 1.5 miles of an old road to the point where we could see lots of blow down. Beautiful views, some because of the burned trees that allowed us to see thru to peaks and ridges. A few other explorers showed up but we had the hoot ourselves. Kudos to the two female gravel grinders who powered up to the lookout summit as we enjoyed our lunch in the shade just below the tower.
Pics are of the geological marker, a cairn with the Methow valley looking west, the view down from the lookout, and the hike on the spur road heading north.
