Mount Forgotten

Mount Forgotten is a peak in the North Cascades characterized by steep cliffs, alpine meadows, and a prominent eastern ridge. The landscape overlooks a major river valley that stretches beneath the summit.

The mountain formed through volcanic activity and is composed of volcanic breccia, revealing the geological history of the region. Its rock formations clearly display evidence of ancient eruptions that shaped the landscape.

Perry Creek Trail leads hikers through diverse terrains, connecting outdoor enthusiasts to the mountain's natural features and testing their mountaineering abilities.

The route starts at Perry Creek and passes through varied terrain with considerable elevation change. Visitors should prepare for demanding conditions and significant altitude gain.

From the summit, Glacier Peak is visible and unobstructed on the horizon, offering a striking landmark for orientation in clear weather. The remote location means fewer people tend to visit this peak compared to better-known neighbors in the range.
