Looking for scenic mountain/waterfall day trips around Seattle/Redmond with minimal hiking. I prefer beautiful drives, viewpoints, waterfalls, lakes, and easy walks around 1 mile max round trip (or just park and enjoy views).

Currently considering:
- North Cascades / Diablo Lake
- Snoqualmie + Gold Creek Pond
- Deception Pass
- Ebey’s Landing

Would love recommendations for the best options, especially for a sunny vs cloudy/rainy weekend. Also open to hidden gems nearby!
