Table Mountain Hike, Artist Point

After a break for lunch we headed up Table Mountain.












It is another popular hike.

The views of Mt. Shuksan and Mt. Baker are breath taking.

The views are a good excuse to stop and rest during the 500 foot climb.

The views from the top are amazing.

The trail is well marked and gravel on the level areas. There are some steep parts of the hike too.









At some points on the hike there are considerable drop offs.

I would certainly recommend hiking poles to give added stability on this hike.

There are some areas of "steps" make out of rocks. Hiking poles are great on these areas.
