"Katie and I finally climbed Unicorn Peak. Ever since we had moved to PA Katie has talked about it and we made it happen. The approach is brutal though, having to deal with so many downed trees from an old fire. The scrambling up Unicorn is good but outside of that Griff is a bushwack and the downed trees are exhausting. My camera died on this one so not many photos." — MatthewWinterberg • Sep 14, 2022
"June 1, 2021. Absolutely stunning views! Patchy snow along most of the trail, but I was fine in my hiking boots without traction. Saw others wearing tennis/running shoes. At the summit there is a large buildup of snow along the northern slope that people were walking out and taking pictures on. That block of snow could detach at any time, so don’t walk out on it.

"A beautiful winter snowshoe along the high crest to the summit from the Hurricane Ridge Visitor Center. Overall rating 8/10, one of the best and most accessible snowshoe routes in this part of the state." — MountainQuest • Jan 17, 2021
"On a week-long vacation to Port Angeles, WA and Olympic National Park, we drove up to Hurricane Ridge one afternoon and hiked to Hurricane Hill. The trail is normally closed right now due to a multi-million dollar improvement, but the trail just happened to be open the day we were there! They're widening it, making it level (from side to side) with a gravel bed because this is one of the most popular tourist stops in the park so it's going to accommodate the big crowds. It's just not complete yet as of this visit (august 2019). But the views of the Olympic Mountains are fantastic the whole hike up/back. Catch the sunrise/sunset at the right time and peaks like Mt Olympus with it's glaciers will really light up. " — marc • Aug 5, 2019
"A beautiful fall day for a hike, I took my 75 year old mother on this very accessible hike. She has lived at the base of this mountain for almost 60 years and had never hiked this trail. She now has a new appreciation for the mountain she sees every morning she opens her bedroom drapes. " — Hillary • Oct 9, 2017
"very easy trail. I would consider it a tourist trail. and w/ the amount of people up there I would say I was right.
most of trail is above treeline. huge meadow near top. loved that there were touristy signs so you knew what peaks you were looking at.
we saw lots of wildlife- several deer, chipmunks, and even a marmut. beautiful day. even w/ all the people, we found a nice ledge to have lunch at alone, and yes- a cold beer. could see port angeles and it's harbor, mt baker, across the strait to victoria, and beyond.
there was a large fire burning to the west of victoria. " — Hillary • Sep 12, 2014
"Just couldn't have chosen a better weekend for snowshoeing at Hurricane Hill. It was mostly clear, all the peaks were out, but it was very cold and windy up on the summit. Even got to play in the snow like a little kid for awhile....great trip!" — aimk13 • Mar 24, 2012
"Extremely windy and bitter cold, with obscured views and near whiteout in some places. Still a fun trip, but a long draining day. Made some detours to avoid avalanche-prone areas." — diana • Feb 26, 2011
