I went on an awesome trip to Park Butte Lookout.

trail covered in snow Lower down the mountain the snow was patchy.

Snowshoe tracks and mountain in the background You can see the peak the lookout is on in the distance

I found this crazy moss on my way up: Moss covered tree close up of moss with red growths on it

lookout with shutters closed Made it to the lookout!

The views were incredible, I spent the hours until sunset reading the guest logs and switching between looking at the four directions.

The log books were fun to look through. Someone hid $230 in 2021 somewhere in the lookout and as far as I can tell, no one has found it yet.

The next morning I hiked out early as the sun rose. sunrise over the mountains
