This is a must trip for hikers in the Seattle area, with it's panoramic view, akin to the view from Mt. Si, with only a fraction of the distance and elevation gain. It's the start, or end, of the Rattlesnake Mountain traverse, which you may decide to do on a later trip. The Discover Pass must be displayed by cars at the trailhead.
