Pratt Mountain
Snoqualmie Region
updated 2 months ago
The route to Pratt Mountain is not maintained, with the latest report from September 6 indicating a significant boulder field scramble rather than a trail. This route is noted for its difficulty in previous attempts due to bushwhacking, but the approach via the SW face boulder field was found to be easier and faster as of September 6. Cairn marking is minimal, with the route simply involving aiming upwards. The boulder field is generally stable, but caution is advised. A new logbook is available on the summit, though it had fewer than 10 recorded trips over the summer as of September 6. The road is suitable for all vehicles, and no bugs were reported on September 6.
