Heybrook Lookout
Gold Bar, WA
Heybrook Lookout, built in 1965, is one of my go-to sunset hikes near Seattle. At 1.6 miles RT and an 850 ft. elevation gain, this hike is a perfect option for getting the mountain views when you're short on time or energy. The trail takes you through an enchanting, mossy forest, and if you get the timing right, you'll be blessed with beautiful light rays illuminating the trees.
