Luna Peak
About
Luna Peak is a summit in Washington's North Cascades National Park, within the Stephen Mather Wilderness, and the land is managed by the National Park Service. The nearest town is Marblemount, about 21 miles away, so reaching the peak means committing to a trip deep into protected wilderness rather than a quick outing from the road. The Luna Peak Route lies about 3 miles away, and the Northern Pickets climbing area sits about 2 miles off. Farther afield are the Southern Pickets and the Little Beaver Trail, each within about 5 miles.
