      ​@@unitedstatesirie7431 Three Fingers is in The Mt. Baker National Forest in Washington State. It is a tiny part of the Cascade Mountin Range that runs from California to British Columbia. Darrinton is a town in the National Forest. Darrington is surrounded by mountains. I'm not sure of the real names but the locals call them, North(N), Jumbo(S), Gold Hill(E) and the most famous, Whitehorse(W). 3 Fingers is tucked behind Whitehorse. My son lives there. You can see almost all of them but Gold Hill from his front porch. And you see that from his back deck.

    I just find it fascinating that there are so many cameras so conveniently placed along the trail! Captures his movements perfectly!
    It must be frustrating to have a place a camera, walk back and then past it walk away from it and then go back and retrieve it. Looks like a hard enough trek without having to do it essentially three times.

    Was not aware of this Lookout ~ "The Three Fingers Lookout is a historic fire observation building on one of the summits of Three Fingers Mountain in Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest, Snohomish County, Washington. Built in 1932-33 in an extremely challenging location, it is one of the oldest surviving observation posts

    The North Cascades are gorgeous. I used to live in Arlington, not far from many wonderful hiking trails. I went hiking almost every day in the non winter months during my 20's and 30's. I had a job that started early in the morning and I would bring my hiking gear to work then I would hit the trail by 3pm, did this almost entirely alone. I moved a few years ago and I miss the pacific NW. I live in the mountains of SE Idaho and go hiking and mountain biking on occasion but I'm getting older sadly, can't do it everyday like I used to be able to. Three fingers I've done twice and loved my time at the old lookout.

There is a very good description of a thunder storm experienced by one of the rangers. He spent a lot of time sitting in the middle of the cabin scared !!
