It is strange to think that this peak is less than 100 miles from Seattle but it clearly is. At 6 miles and 1600 feet of elevation gain this hike is easy to moderate and good for families. Lots of stunning views over to the nearby Olympics and the fellow Sooke Hills. This is a winner if you are ever in the nearby Victoria.

Some pics from the trip. The video though does a better job showing both the hike and many of the views.

Thanks, It has been a long, long time. But I decided to reach out to the world more. Recently more focused on surfing than hiking but I still try to hike once to twice a week.

Thanks!! I have been more focused on surfing the past year, but it is good to do some so low end peakbagging three or four times a month.
