The pnwSOTA website was created to facilitate communication between SOTA operators in the Pacific Northwest region, as well as show off some of the activities of the top-notch folks we have in the area. On this site you will find information about getting started in SOTA as well as details about summits and activations contributed by people that are operating here.
Getting there: Access is relatively easy if your car has okay ground clearance. I got there in a Subaru Forester without difficulty. Drive up Forest Service road 25 to the intersection with 2565. There is some erosion to the road bed that might create a problem for a Prius. The two worst spots are near the intersection with road 25. Everything is clear past those two points. As of Summer 2026, vegetation is beginning to encroach on the road corridor but I avoided pinstripes. About a mile up, the road splits in three directions. Keep the summit to your right as you proceed.
The road up Fish Creek to this summit is closed. Looks like the area is closed as well per sign.
