This drive traverses the wrong side of a ridgeline for Rainier views, but there are still very pretty views of the valley and forest. A few pull-off areas along the road had evidence of previous campfires and enough space for camping, but the real experience of George Creek comes from the fact that it traverses a burn scar through the forest, surrounding you with snags and giving a bit of an eerie feeling, even on a bright sunny day. You'll need to be prepared for downed trees and use caution in heavy winds.
The official end of the trail ends at a slightly obscure spot with little room for turning around.
