| no partners | | | Just a gorgeous day at Mt. Rainier. Was surprised to find only about 10 cars in the lot at Paradise when we arrived just before 10 AM. Not a cloud in the sky. Temps were a little chilly to start but overall a perfect day for hiking. Saw our fair share of wildlife along the hike. We did the Skyline and High Skyline Loop. Just under 6 miles 2,000 feet of elevation gain. A great day hike. Views of Mt. Rainier along 90% of the trail. Views of Mt. Adams, Mt. Hood and Mt. St. Helens from the top point of the trail (just over 7,000 ft) as well. The fall colors are really coming out now and the trail is still snow free except for a patch just past Panorama Point (but it's not an issue if you take the High Skyline trail). Definitely worth the 6 hour round trip drive from the 'Couv. |
