View east to Spada Reservoir in the Sultan Basin from the fire lookout atop Mount Pilchuck Rising 1 mile above the surrounding countryside and perched on the western edge of the Cascades, Mount Pilchuck offers some of the best panoramic viewing in these parts. From its restored historic fire lookout, scan the horizon—from Rainier to Baker, Glacier Peak to the Olympics, Seattle to the San Juans—and every jagged, rugged & snowcapped peak lining the Mountain Loop Highway.
