"I would definitely recommend this trip to a friend."
My brother and I were driving around Everett, saw Mt. Pilchuck in the distance, asked some local Volunteer Firefighters what it's name was, and how to get there. We had packs ready, so we hiked Pilchuck that day. Took lots of pictures, enjoyed the views.
When we reached the lookout, we were joined by two guys who informed us of the incredible luck we had that day. It was late July, and there was a clear view of the surrounding mountains and valleys.
We are from Missouri, and were excited to know that "if you look really hard, that mountain over there is in Canada".Thanks, guys!
I love this hike, and can't wait to get back to Washington and do it again!
