- Mount Erie (wa100.dnr.wa.gov)
Mount Erie is the high point of Fidalgo Island, just a few minutes from the city of Anacortes. It boasts a premier vista of the islands and waterways of the Puget Lowland. On a clear day, not only do you have a sweeping view of Fidalgo Island, Whidbey Island, the Olympic Mountains, and Mount Rainier, but you can think about this: during the last ice age, you would be standing under 3,000 feet of ice, even on this 1,250-foot peak! The asymmetric peak serves as an excellent lookout from which to orient oneself within this unique island chain landscape. Whether you come for the day or just a quick drive to the top for an unforgettable photo, Mount Erie represents an up-close perspective of the Salish Sea with unparalleled ease of access.
