Granite Mountain
Snoqualmie Region
As of late June 2026, Granite Mountain is largely snow-free, with recent reports (June 24-25) confirming no snow on the mountain. Wildflowers are blooming, though reports from June 25 and June 22 suggest a less abundant beargrass year and few wildflowers overall, with some exceptions for columbine, paintbrush, lupine, and spirea. The trail is in good condition, with minor obstacles including a few easily stepped-over deadfalls and some moderate erosion. Rocky sections are present throughout, especially on the steeper upper portions. Parking can be tight, with many cars reported by 7:30-8:00 AM on weekends. Bugs are emerging in meadows, but the summit breeze keeps them at bay. The lookout tower is closed.
