Climbed both Guye Peak in the foreground, and the actual Mt Snoqualmie in the background, years ago. Mt Snoqualmie is about 7,500 feet, it is the highest peak at Snoqualmie Pass. From the far side of the summit of Mt Snoqualmie is a 700' dropoff that looks out over all the Alpine Lakes Wilderness Area. Stunning!

In the hanging valley between Guye Peak and Mt Snoqualmie are a number of limestone caves. Very vertical and quite dangerous, only for cave experts. But interesting that they are there.

Guye Peak is the best part of the drive. My husband does it daily, and it is lovely in summer when he can see it in the mornings.

Gawd I miss the cascades, the so called “mountains” on the east coast just don’t hit the same 😒

I hope you didn't have to just drive by and view from the freeway.

If there are no trees blocking it’s actually better that way, the area’s below freezing
