Stunning easy hike off HW-2. Beautiful fall foliage and view of the Snoqualmie Crest.
Easy up and down through the forest with glimpses of peaks as you go, then with views that just keep getting better and better to the summit.
As others have said, watch out for folks driving quickly on the forest trail, and also try not to park to block the turn around at the trail head.

They probably mean the forest service road lol people go way too quickly around blind corners in the middle of the road
