Sentinel

Tolmie Peak, Mount Rainier National Park, Washington

 

On the opposite side of Green Lake (and directly in the sun when I was there!), lies Tolmie Peak. At just over 5920 feet/1800m, it is the site of one of the 4 fire lookouts that still remain in the Park, one in each corner. The lookout isn't visible from this side but it is possible to hike to it later in the summer from Mowich Lake on the opposite side after that road opens.

 

For a look at the view of Mount Rainier and Eunice Lake from the top of Tolmie Peak, see the photo in my comment below from when I hiked it a few years ago.
