AI summary · From the event listing

This Sunday we'll hike to Grand Prospect, a viewpoint on the west peak of Rattlesnake Mountain. We'll start near Snoqualmie and hike through 4 miles of forest, past seasonal mushrooms and local and flora and fauna, until we reach the beginning of Rattlesnake Mountain's ridgeline. If we're feeling very ambitious we could continue along the ridge to the middle peak or east peak, else we'll stop for lunch at the west peak and then hike back. We'll be making friends, staying fit, being polite and having fun! We will first meet at Wilburton Park and Ride. Carpooling from there is encouraged but you are also welcome to meet us at the trailhead: Rattlesnake Mountain Trail Parking Lot (47.509, -121.844).
