"One of my favorite hikes at Mt Rainier. The glacier had lots of cracks this time which are hard to spot until you are almost on them. You always see lots of goats around the Cowlitz Chimneys." — bryangharris • Jul 24, 2021

"Long hard climb in from frying pan creek trailhead. Got some really bad intel from the ranger station so ended up carrying my snowshoes which I never used. The slope up to meany crest is a bear. Little tahoma was fantastic, but a long steep ascent up the eastern face." — oregon-mt-goat • Jun 16, 2021

"Intended to do Virginia Peak and a few others off the Mowich Road, but the road was too slippery for my hatchback. I turned around and decided to do Florence as a back-up. There was about a foot of snow at the summit. I was the first person up there since the snowfall, so I didn't need the microspikes I brought." — TynanRammGranberg • Nov 8, 2020

"Bridge over the Carbon is washed out. There's a log I thought about skooting across, but it was wet (indicating it had been under water, or at least splashed the day before) and there was a hot day forecasted (glacier melt boost), so I opted to go to Tyee and Chenuis instead." — TynanRammGranberg • Sep 7, 2020

"Left Sunrise Point at 6:30 AM with the plan of doing the trailed portion of this loop before many folks were on the trail, then returning via the ridge line. Saw nobody on the trail until I got to Dege Peak. Possibly some light Class 3 on the route I took to Marcus Peak and descending from Marcus to the south, but overall Class 2. Saw quite the gamut of ungulates: deer, mountain goats, and bull elk (the latter bugling and locking antlers in the meadows). Any time my GPS track descends from the ridgeline, I was following a game trail. It was a spectacular, blue bird day, but started brisk (36* when I left Sunrise Point). Met a very nice man from Ohio named Ricardo on the summit of Dege. I wish he wasn't traveling so extensively during the pandemic, but I wish him luck on his tour of the West. Note: Peakery currently lists both "The Palisades" and "Palisades Peak" for some reason." — TynanRammGranberg • Aug 30, 2020
