 Views from the top of Mount Si.  The mountain is just north of North Bend.  The trail starts at about
500 feet above sea level and ends at almost 5000 feet (not including "the haystack").  That's an
ascent of 4500 feet in a four mile hike.

This is the only good view I have of Mount Si before
going on the climb.  The "Haystack" is the rock formation
to the right of center.

I did not take any photos during the hike.  All these are taken from the top of Mount Si.
This is a good view of The Haystack.

Rock formations to the south of the Haystack.  This is looking southwest.

A view looking south.

You can see North Bend in the valley

Pointing the camera straight down.  Next step is a doosey

Great view of North Bend from 5000 feet.  I-90 is towards the top of the photo
