History

The name "Pilchuck" originated from the Native American name of "red water" for a creek in the area.[2] The U.S. Forest Service built a fire lookout on the summit in 1918 which was staffed until the 1960s. Washington State Parks administered a concessionaire-run ski area on the slopes of Mt. Pilchuck from 1957 to 1980, when it was closed due to poor snow conditions. The park is managed in partnership with the USFS and the Everett Mountaineers.[1]
