Thank you! Most folks who make Mount Rainier a day trip are coming from the Seattle area, and they work their way around from the southwest corner of the park, driving first through Longmire to Paradise, then Ohanapecosh, and on to Sunrise.

We’re from outside Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. We frequent the mountains as often as possible (almost once a month…more in the winter to ski)…Lake Louise, Banff and Jasper are all 4 hours away and are a piece of Heaven on earth…we just completed a week long camping trip to southern Alberta and learned a lot about our rich history—really makes me grateful for our lives in the here and now. Google the Frank Slide for those that aren’t familiar—it’s an epic (and sad) tale of mountains moving, and a town crushed.

My husband and I summited Rainier in early July this year. We had been on the mtn several times before (Camp Muir together & he summited last July while I was pregnant!). Being in the Midwest, our trips to the PNW are wonderful and always too short. You are so fortunate to live where you do! We are scheming ways to move that way…
