One of the most iconic peaks in the North Cascades. the climb up Eldorado's East Ridge ascends from old growth forest to a classic, exposed snow ridge at the top. Included in the 'Washington Top 100 List', the 25th highest peak in Washington provides a challenging and highly rewarding trip!
Fred Beckey called Eldorado Peak “Queen of the Cascade River” considering that it is in the middle of a collection of beautiful peaks. Massively aloof, the summit has a Himalayan like splendor owing to its remoteness, position, and knife-edge summit ridge.
