Hiking at Dirty Harry's Balcony (Snoqualmie Pass)

Join FIUTS for a hike to Dirty Harry’s Balcony. Dirty Harry’s Peak is named after a logger of questionable repute—his logging in the North Bend area earned him the moniker. But don’t let that stop you from enjoying the short two mile hike up to Dirty Harry’s Balcony; it’s about an hour’s trek from the trailhead. Those who wish to go further can hike on up to Dirty Harry’s Museum (the names just get better and better) where you can see Harry’s old GMC truck--the only artifact in this “museum.” But beware—there may still be snow on the trail.

Get a workout and marvel at rock work completed by Department of Natural Resources and WTA volunteer crews on this hike. Your reward is a rocky overlook from which you can marvel at Mount Kent, McClellan Butte, and Mount Washington, the behemoths forming the south rim of the west entrance to Snoqualmie Pass.
