Mount Rainier
After three and a half months we finally took a trip to Mount Rainier National Park on Saturday. We didn't know what to expect; as such we just grabbed some sweatshirts and took a drive. It was very cloudy, so we never did see the top half of Mt. Rainier; however, the views on the way up to Sunrise (6400 ft) were amazing.
There are plenty of turnoffs, hiking paths, etc. on the way up, and we didn't even take the preferred/popular route. All in all it was about a two hour drive from our house to Sunrise Point, and 45 minutes of that was within the park.
