| Also did Larch. Clouds were high enough to let us see out to Yelm. | |

| Great View of Rainier with a low cloud level on this day. Otherwise this mtn sucked but it sucked quite quickly so that's not so bad. | |

| BearQueen | The summit was foggy and trashed Date Climbed: Jan 31, 2010 | |
| wanted to do an easy hike with potentially good views so EastKing took me to Capital Peak down in the Black Hills near Olympia. Unfortunately the dirt road was not ideal for our older car but the car did make it. Also the peak was socked in only small openings through the clouds. All I can say is that this peak is cell phone tower heaven and it is also heavily littered with beer cans and other garbage. Not exactly a thing of beauty but it was good to get out and get yet another summit. | |

| Dean | Larch Mtn first Date Climbed: Feb 18, 2006 | |
| Sp member Bob and I first went to Larch Mtn and then walked up the gated road to the top of Capitol. We had some great views to the east and Mt. Rainier was worth the hike to the top of Capitol. | |

| Redwic | Nice Views! Many Towers! Date Climbed: Nov 14, 2009 | |
| Snowfall during the two days prior to my visit made the forest roads very slick and interesting for my little vehicle. The snowbound road conditions worsened near the parking area. A nice short walk up the summit road. A LOT of communications towers. Even on a foggy day, I was able to see Mount Rainier in the distance. | |
