## Overview

Perched atop its namesake mountain at an elevation of 5,587 feet, Evergreen
Mountain Lookout was built in 1935 for detecting wildfires. During fire
season, lookouts stayed in the cabin, watching for lightning strikes and
forest fires in the Skykomish drainage. Once the lookout located a fire or
smoke, he or she would radio to the Skykomish Ranger Station and give local
landmarks to help firefighters locate the fire quickly. During World War II,
Evergreen Mountain Lookout was used as an Aircraft Warning Station, and then
remained an active fire tower until the early 1980s. During volunteer
restoration efforts in the 1990s, the lookout was placed on the National
Register of Historic Places. The lookout tower is located in the Wild Sky
Wilderness and must be accessed via a steep, scenic hike on the Evergreen
Lookout Trail . Some amenities are provided, but guests should be prepared to
pack in many of their own supplies.

## Recreation

Hiking, birding and wildlife viewing are popular activities around the
lookout.  
  
Guests access the lookout via the Evergreen Lookout Trail that climbs steeply
through the old Evergreen Mountain Burn of 1967. Hikers enter dense forest,
where the grade eases a bit upon reaching a small saddle below the lookout. At
this point, the trail ascends again to reach the building. The trail is noted
for wildflowers, scenery and wildlife.

## Natural Features

On a clear day, guests at Evergreen Mountain Lookout see views of Glacier
Peak, Mt. Daniels, Keyes Peak, Columbia Glacier, Mt. Rainier and parts of the
Henry M. Jackson Wilderness. Remains of the last big fire spotted on Evergreen
Mountain in 1967 are still evident on the rocky south face of the ridge to
within several hundred feet of the lookout.  
  
Evergreen Mountain Lookout is situated within the Wild Sky Wilderness area.
Wildlife is abundant, and guests may catch a glimpse of black bears, bobcat,
elk or bald eagle. Wolves are making a comeback to the area, but they are
usually heard and not seen.

## Overview

This campground is located approximately 20 miles east of Index, Washington in
the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest. It offers guests a wonderful spot to
take in the scenery and enjoy a multitude of recreational activities in the
Northern Cascade Range.  
  
Sites are nestled in a mixed conifer forest on the banks of the scenic North
Fork Skykomish River and its tributary, Troublesome Creek. Water is abundant
in this area, offering visitors easy access to fishing, kayaking, and
swimming. Guests will be lulled to sleep by its subtle, but ever-present
gurgle.  
  
This campground is ideal for escaping the hustle of everyday life to enjoy
time with friends and family.

## Recreation

At the campground, Troublesome Creek is a delight for exploring. A footbridge
crosses the bubbling creek beneath towering pine and fir trees. For guests
wanting to relax at the water's edge, or children searching for newness in
nature, this is an ideal spot without even leaving the campground.  
  
The adjacent North Fork Skykomish River offers fishing for steelhead and
salmon.  
  
For those wanting to venture further, the Beckler Peak Trail may be included
on the agenda. Located 10 miles from the town of Skykomish, this trail is
challenging, but worth the effort, offering hikers the opportunity to view the
diverse landscapes of the area from a variety of perspectives.  
  
At the Jennifer Dunn Trailhead, the trail starts out on a decommissioned
logging road, and climbs through young alder and vine maple to an expansive
vista of the Skykomish Valley. The trail continues to switchback through huge
trees and by the remains of a trapper's cabin. Climbing higher, and upon
reaching the final ridge top through steep alpine forest, hikers will be in
awe of the panoramic view of near and distant peaks.

## Natural Features

The Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest showcases rugged peaks, sparkling
alpine lakes, and old-growth forests, providing visitors with unique and
surprising landscapes.  
  
Mt. Baker, the most prominent feature of the Mt. Baker Wilderness Area,
dominates the landscape on a clear day. Rising to an elevation of 10,781 feet,
the active volcano from which the forest takes its name is perpetually snow-
capped and mantled with an extensive network of creeping glaciers. Mt. Baker's
summit, Grant Peak, is actually a mound of ice 1,300 feet deep, which hides a
massive volcanic crater.  
  
Wildlife in the area includes mountain goats traversing the higher elevations,
to coyotes and pine marten in the forests. Migratory birds and native fish
find ample habitat in the varied ecosystems as well. These species, along with
many others, depend on surrounding undeveloped wilderness, clean streams, and
diverse forests to live.

In addition to being a prime location for hiking and fishing in summer and early fall, Miller River offers excellent skiing and snowshoeing in the winter months.<br/><br/> 

The Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest's 1,500 miles of trails can entice any hiker to get outdoors. From smooth paths meandering through deep quiet forests to challenging ascents up boulder-studded mountains, opportunities abound for every skill level.<br/><br/>

The nearby Dorothy Lake Trail begins in a densely shaded forest for approximately 1.5 miles to the outlet of Dorothy Lake, then continues along the lake's eastern edge for another 2 miles to its inlet. From here the trail climbs steeply over a ridge and enters the Snoqualmie Ranger District. Permits are needed for both day-use hiking and overnight backpacking and camping in Wilderness Areas.<h2>Facilities</h2>

Hemmed in by several designated wilderness areas, the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest showcases rugged peaks, sparkling alpine lakes and old-growth forests.<br/><br/>

Mt. Baker, the most prominent feature of the Mt. Baker Wilderness Area, dominates the landscape on a clear day. Rising to an elevation of 10,781 feet, the active volcano from which the forest takes its name is perpetually snow-capped and mantled with an extensive network of creeping glaciers. Mt. Baker's summit, Grant Peak, is actually a 1,300-foot-deep mound of ice, which hides a massive volcanic crater.<br/><br/>

More than 700 lakes and mountain ponds dot the glacier-carved terrain of nearby Alpine Lake Wilderness. Tree-covered valleys give way to rocky ridges and rugged peaks along the crest of the Cascades. Many peaks and slopes are permanently cloaked in snowfields. <br/><br/>
 
Congress designated the Alpine Lakes Wilderness in 1976 with a total of 362,789 acres, 117,862 of which lie in the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest.

## Overview

The Heybrook Lookout sits atop its namesake ridge at 1,700 feet. The lookout
itself rises 67 feet above the ridgeline and provides spectacular views of
breathtaking glacial peaks surrounding the valley. The first Heybrook fire
lookout was a simple tent platform built in 1925. The Forest Service replaced
it seven years later with a 45-foot log leg tower, with a ground-level cabin
intended as sleeping quarters for fire rangers; however, rampant rodents
eventually drove the rangers up into the tower where they lived until a
67-foot lookout was built in 1964. Heybrook Lookout is one of only 106
lookouts left in Washington State.

## Recreation

Hiking, birding and wildlife viewing are popular activities around the
lookout.
