This is an incredible viewpoint with 360 degree views of the Cascades of Mt. Rainier National Park. The entrance (not the fee entrance) is a 1/2 mile or so down the road. There are several signs telling you how the glacial valley was formed. Across the highway are restrooms and a trailhead that connects you into the Pacific Crest Trail and also takes you up to Sheep Lake. The area surrounding the immediate viewpoint is covered in wildflowers through most of July and August, so come and enjoy!
