Pinnacle Peak, Mountain summit in Mount Rainier National Park, Washington, United States.
The Pinnacle Peak Trail extends 2.5 miles with an elevation gain of 1,050 feet, leading to a saddle height of 5,920 feet in the Tatoosh Range.
The peak contains remnants of a former fire lookout station that operated between 1928 and 1971, with concrete footings still visible at the summit.
The Cal Magnusson Trail bears the name of a notable Cascade mountaineer who dedicated 25 years working alongside climbing expert Jim Whittaker at REI.
Hikers can access the trailhead from Stevens Canyon Road near Reflection Lakes, where parking facilities are available for visitors exploring the trails.
The peak rises from an extinct volcanic cinder cone, partially buried by the Osceola Mudflow from Mount Rainier approximately 5,600 years ago.
