Even better, there’s an app called Peakfinder that gives you a POV wireframe version of this from pretty much anywhere. Best five bucks you’ll spend this month

I always feel it’s underrated, not the tallest but cool shape

Growing up I always thought it was three fingers mountain but Mt Baring is technically correct

I did too. Or I guess I always heard it as three sisters? Is that a different mountain altogether? I feel dumb now since I grew up in Snohomish and now live here again and have seen these mountains a million times.

Great hiking objective. People BASE jump off the taller peak.

It is an awesome hike, though quite strenuous with 3,500 feet of gain in 3.5 miles. It’s the 3rd steepest mountain in WA. There are also climbing routes along the north face. Unfortunately the whole area will be closed until at least the beginning of 2024, due to the Bolt Creek fire. While people do base jump from the summit, it is illegal to do so. There have been accidents and several deaths.

Where are you finding figures on steepest mountains?

I remembered reading it while researching the route before hiking it.
A quick google search pulled up summitpost.org’s list.

Side thought, living in the east side of the state. Every time we stopped in north bend. The views were amazing.

The tattoo on my bicep is based on that peak. Really great memories while growing up in the Skykomish River area(near Gold Bar)

I didn’t know the actually name of the mountain but is this in the Tatoosh Range?

There are some really good peak identification apps for phones that use the camera. I've been using PeakFinder for years - but it is a paid app. I can't recommend any of the free ones.

It kinda looks like the Tetons.

It does look like a part of the Tetons from the Tetonia side, about 1/3 of the Tetons. I’ll be driving by there next week.

I think you're thinking of 3 fingers but this actually isn't it

I didn't see the Washington part either, was thinking Alberta. So I was actually wrong twice 😂
