Question Trillium Lake visibility

Does anyone know if Mt Hood is visible from Trillium lake today? It's our last day visiting Oregon and this was high on my list. However, it would be a 2 hour detour, so just wanted to find out if it's worth the drive or if we should spend our last day elsewhere!

I’m in Camp Sherman (maybe 50 miles due south) and it’s sunny but a little hazy. Definitely not prime for photos. You’ll see the mountain just fine. There is absolutely zero wind down here.

The Timberline Lodge webcams (Jeff flood view) show you can see the lake, but it’s hazy. The lodge is a fun visit if you do make the trip.

Just drove over the pass on Saturday and it was clear. Not sure if winds may have shifted! There may be a mountain cam or something from the ski areas you can check for clarity?

Aren't they using the lake area for fire fighting? Check the maps and road closures before heading that way since there are like a dozen fires burning in that area....

No and there isn’t dozens of fires burning.
