Squak Mountain
About
Squak Mountain is a 1,592-acre state park in Washington, managed by the state park agency. The nearest town is East Renton Highlands, about 2.6 miles away. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. At a nearby weather station in Renton, July and August typically average highs around 77 to 78°F with only about five wet days a month. That station sits at 29 feet, so temperatures on the mountain run cooler. Several trails start right around the park, including the Summit Trail at 0.2 miles and the C1 - Central Peak Trail and East Ridge Trail at about 0.3 miles. For paddling, Issaquah Creek is just under a mile away.
