South Central Washington Fire Lookouts

Comments for this page... This zone contains Trout Lake (my family's historical home), Mt Adams where my grandfather used to guide people and the Yakama nation that houses two lookouts that are closed to visitors except with explicit permission

As of this writing, the Yakama folks have granted us access in exchange for labor to open the lookouts for the 2019 fire season. We were able to visit them on 6/14/19

Adams (structure exists)
Aix X X The final ascent to the very rugged mt Aix can be done as a scramble on the western aspect. You will find a boot path. Or follow the trail around to the eastern aspect. We thought both routes to be exposed and elected to do the western aspect. Other people we know did the eastern and thought it fine. Take your choice! GPS Track
