"The most easily accessible mountain area in the park, it delivers sweeping summit views of the Olympics and alpine meadows dotted with marmots, making it feel like a ‘top-of-the-world’ destination for day hikes. Open year-round for different activities, it offers snowshoeing and cross-country skiing in winter and is a prime stargazing spot in summer with public astronomy programs, telescope viewing, and full-moon hikes." - Travel + Leisure Editors
