Granite Mountain is that gleaming bulk across Interstate North Face 90 from Humpback Mountain. This is the premier tour in the Snoqualmie Pass area because of its huge south-side runs of varying difficulty, its numerous and complex northern descents, and its short approach. When Snoqualmie Summit is cloaked in the dreaded Snoqualmie ice fog, Granite Mountain often enjoys spring-like sunshine and corn snow. Difficulties: High avalanche potential; permit / fee area.

View Guide

This is a great hike to test yourself and get in shape for something bigger. The top 500 feet can be very icy at times and you should really have at the very North Face Jackets least an ice axe. We snow-shoed to the top yesterday and the conditions were pretty good. Some wind (20 mph) gusting at the top make us glad we had some warm gear too. The first third of this hike you can do with just boots then the rest is snow shoes or skis, but I would be careful on the top like the last person mentioned its steep and can get very icy. Not much traffic past about 4000 feet due to difficulty the lower trail is fairly busy with people trying out their new snow gear.

I just snowboarded this route for the first time, but certainly not the last. When snow conditions are stable, this is one of the greatest and closest North Face Sale backcountry routes near Seattle. The hike up started in the forest then opened up to the rocky SW ridge. The west side was icy and worked best for the crampon crew, we stayed on the east side with snow soft enough to kick steps in. There is fire tower at the summit, but it provides no shelter from the wind since it sits high on posts. The descent was superb. We rode just west of the ridge then dropped into the avalanche gulch at treeline. The gulch was fun, but petered out at the top of a waterfall. Here we snowshoed down east of the fall and down all the way to the road. It required bushwacking, but took less than an hour. Most would rather head back down the trail at treeline or just below.
