Table Mountain, Mountain summit in Skamania County, United States.
Table Mountain is a summit in Skamania County that rises to about 5,742 feet (1,751 meters) and can be reached via a network of trails with varying difficulty levels. The hike passes through thick forests and rocky ground, with several viewpoints offering views of surrounding peaks along the way.
The summit was shaped by volcanic activity and tectonic forces that molded the present-day Cascade Range landscape. The region grew increasingly popular with hikers and explorers during the 1800s as trails were gradually developed to improve access to the peak.
Local hiking communities regularly organize group expeditions to Table Mountain, maintaining traditional outdoor recreational practices in Washington state.
The route is closed during winter months when the Mount Baker Highway shuts down, making summer and fall the best times to visit. Bring water and sturdy footwear, as conditions can change quickly on higher sections of the trail.
Two small mountain lakes near the summit create a natural frame for photographs of Mount Shuksan and surrounding peaks in the distance. These lakes reflect the mountain scenery and serve as popular photo spots for people exploring the area.
