Review:<\/strong> June 2, 2020
Climb up through a forest of Douglas fir and grand fir with an understory of vine maples. The trail climbs the entire time up to Sleeping Beauty peak. The hike is pretty much a grind up numerous switchbacks through a second growth forest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Near the top the trees thin out and you climb a few final switchbacks which were constructed by volunteers by stacking the flat basalt rocks to create nice switchbacks. Once you get to the top there are several places with 360 degree vistas. On a clear day you have nice views of Mt. St. Helens, Mt. Rainier, Mt. Adams, Mt. Hood. Also on the easternmost crag, just below the top, on the northeast corner near the top is a grave marker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep an eye out for mountain goats along the cliffs by the summit. There are a couple of summits at nearly the same elevation. On the western crag is the remains of the old fire lookout. There is a pair of rockbolts sticking out that were probably used to haul supplies up a cliff to the lookout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is an out and back hike so once you’re done exploring the crags on the peak return back the same way to the trailhead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since this is a short hike you could combine it with the nearby Weldon Wagon Road hike.

Enjoy the photos!!
