Moses Mountain

Moses Mountain is a high mountain peak at an elevation of 2.066m (6,778ft) above the sea level, located in Okanogan County, in the north-central part of the U.S. state of Washington. It’s one of the highest mountain roads of Washington.

Moses Mountain

The road to the summit, located within the Colville Indian Reservation, is gravel, rocky, tippy and bumpy at times. It’s called BIA Road 61. The road is usually impassable from October to June (weather permitting). Great trail for experienced wheelers. Avoid driving in this area if unpaved mountain roads aren't your strong point. 4x4 vehicle required. Stay away if you're scared of heights. Expect a trail pretty steep. Wet conditions may make for tough driving along the muddy road. At the summit is a fire lookout. The first fire lookout on the peak was a wooden platform built during 1914. Although the fire lookout has not been in use since the mid-1980s, it is still the tallest lookout tower in the Pacific Northwest, if not the entire western United States.
