Mt. Rainier National Park

We really didn’t expect what we found we arrived at Mt. Rainier. All the hiking trails above 5000 ft. in elevation were buried under 3 feet of snow! We hiked around anyway of course, and even got caught in a white out. It was fun, lots of people were still out skiing and snowboarding. Unfortunately, like St. Helens, we never actually got to see the mountain due to cloud cover. But, there was a lot to do in the Park, lots of trails to hike, and we had a good time.

Beautiful scenery.

Unless you can’t see it due to snow, sleet, and rain!

I’ve been looking for weird squirrels to take pictures of for Lane, but havn’t seen any. I did get this funny picture of a marmot, though!

At lower elevations there was a lot of green, really cool waterfalls and nice trails.
