Windy Peak, Mountain summit in Okanogan County, Washington, US
The 2540-meter Windy Peak stands within the North Cascades range, offering a challenging climb through diverse terrain and burned forest areas.
The trail system around Windy Peak became part of the Lost Trails Campaign, focusing on maintaining remote pathways across Washington State wilderness areas.
Photographers and nature enthusiasts gather at the summit to document the North Cascades panorama and capture images of Mount Baker on clear days.
The hiking trail extends 11 miles one-way from Long Swamp Campground, gaining 4,050 feet in elevation through a series of switchbacks and forest paths.
During autumn, the surrounding landscape transforms as golden larches create natural displays along the trail leading to the mountain peak.
