Hiking
Davis Peak is a challenging hike with a big payoff: a 360-degree panorama of more than 10 Cascades peaks.
A false summit can lure hikers off the main trail. Keep an eye on the trail. If it suddenly turns into a rocky scramble, you’ve gone too far. Backtrack to rejoin the main trail as it drops to the northwest, off the ridge and down into a bowl. The route traverses across the bowl and a snow-fed creek before switchbacking up to the next ridgeline.
