Looking for ideas in July and curious what others enjoy in the area. I attempted the loop from spider gap-buck creek last year and am planning Maude-seven fingered jack for this year. Any other fun ones for non technical scrambling and great views?

So many good options already listed, the GPW is great! I'll throw in another--Suiattle River to PCT and then south however far you feel like going. If you are feeling adventurous you can check out part of Lime Ridge. Also to tack onto White Pass area, Foam Creek route over to basin at base of White Chuck Glacier is cool. Can do a loop partially off trail, through fairly open terrain, down thru Glacier Peak Meadows and pick up PCT again below Red Pass, follow it south back to White Pass.

Snowking Mtn is an awesome scramble, maybe my favorite of all time, but the approach trail is legendarily brutal.

Are you looking for a dayhike or multi-night trip?

This must be a trick question. The only possible answer is "all of them."

+2 Circumnavigation. Trekking Washington has a pretty good write up on it. One of Irons old posts is also very inspiring.
