View of Rainier from the summit
This trip was a very mellow snowshoe outing.
We took the logging road for the first couple of miles, and then made
our way directly up the forested snow slopes to the summit. The gentle
grade on and off the road had us wishing we had skis, but it was a
nice day to be out.
