A hike Thursday 09/27/12 to Lookout Mt.
Lookout Mt. is the highest peak next to Mt. Hood in our area
From Lookout Mt. we continued on the Palisade Point.
This hike provided fantastic views of
Mt. Hood, Mt. Adams, Mt. Jefferson, Mt. Rainier and Mt. St. Helen's.
The hike was seven miles with an 1800 ft of elevation gain.
All in all a very difficult hike (at least for me)

The climb up was anything but easy. Climbing 1800 ft up is not a piece of cake.
