Monday hike of Lookout Mountain

Let's enjoy our wonderful spring weather with a hike to Lookout Mountain, with its great view of Mt. Baker and the Cascades, and the surprise of some tree fossils.

This will be an out and back hike of 9 miles and 1,700 feet of elevation gain, almost entirely on old roads. It's not a rocky or rugged hike, but the elevation gain and warm temperatures mean you will have to be in good shape.

Stamina:
The trail is moderately steep the entire way. We'll be hiking at a steady pace, this isn't a race, after all! We'll stop at the top to enjoy the views and check out the fossils, as well as break for lunch. The upper trail will be entirely in the sun, hats and sunscreen are recommended!

Notes:

• No parking pass is required.
• There are bathrooms at the trailhead.
• Dogs are welcome, but must stay leashed on the lower half of the hike.
