Times have changed for Frog Mountain. It was once a nice viewpoint with a steady stream of visitors. Now it is little noticed and probably has trees growing over most of the views. With the access roads being washed out regularly, I have seen few reports from ascents up the Frog.

Distance: 1 mile
Elevation Gain: 1,000 feet
Summit Elevation: 5,236 feet
Access Rating: Gravel, usually nice

From Enumclaw drive east on State Route 410 for 22 miles to a right onto West Fork Road (Forest Road 74). Drive this road 6.8 miles to the river crossing and the winter closure gate. If open, continue a short distance, turning right, but still on FR 74. Now go around 7 miles to Martin Gap. Look for the Frog Mountain Trail shooting north from somewhere out of the gap, possibly 150 feet before the road hits the gap.

Just hike up the trail to the top. Maps show another trail from the north. I don�t have any info on that trail.

Sitting on the summit

View south of Clear West Peak and Rainier (if the weather was better). My note on the back of the picture said the shot was from the false summit.
