To kick off National Park Week, discover a park near you! All National Park Service sites are entrance fee free today. Is there a NPS site you’ve always wanted to visit?
Many of Mount Rainier National Park’s roads and trails are still covered in snow, but now may be a great time to discover a different side of the park. Snow can linger well into June, but by snowshoeing you can still explore the mountain! Check out Mount Rainier’s Beginner’s Guide to Snowshoeing to get started.
If you’ve already tried snowshoeing at Mount Rainier, what was your favorite memory of the experience?

A much needed day in the woods with my friend. There was nobody on the snowshoe trails so we just enjoyed easy conversation and the quietness of the forest. Coffee afterwards, of course. They have the coolest mural there. I love finding little treasures in small towns ❤️

Photo Diary: The last 100 days
Days 93 - 94
We spent Christmas Eve eating some tasty Polish food followed by playing games for the rest of the evening.
For Christmas, my parents hosted and cooked a wonderful American holiday feast! Before dinner I went for a beautiful hike (or as my step-father and neighbor call it - 'a fat man loop').
The mountain forest was so gorgeous and serene. As the evening approached the fog rolled in and there was almost no visibility from the summit! It was a bit spooky but very fun.

Sometimes it’s worth getting out of the house

This snowshoe/snow mobile route is 15 minutes from our house and less than two hours from Seattle. You’d think that on a bluebird Sunday with fresh snow the trail would be packed. Not so. We saw a few snow mobiles and snow motorcycles but no one else on foot.
Beth and I hiked 6 miles and 1k’ ascent in 2:39 with our niece and her boyfriend and it was spectacular. My knee hurt, but it was a small price to pay.

Me and my dog joined some friends (and their dogs) and tried out snowshoeing. Massive amounts of fun were had by all.

There’s something about the our home, the Pacific Northwest, that seems to make many people think of rain.
We do get quite a bit of our yearly precipitation during the winter months. At the higher elevations, like Paradise, it will probably be snow. At lower elevations, like Longmire and the Nisqually Entrance, it will probably be rain.
Tumblr media
And you’d think with all this precipitation, finding drinking water during your hike, ski or snow shoe is no problem. It’s not, if you’re prepared. While you’re packing up your backpack at home, you run through your check list of 10 Essentials, packing everything you’ll need, and hydration is one of them.
Do you prefer to carry all your water for your hike or snowshoe? Bringing along a refillable bottle or two or three means you can drink while out having fun, and then refill at Longmire for the drive home. Some folks swear by a water bladder in the backpack. Did you know you can get insulated ones so it doesn’t freeze up in the freezing temperatures?
Tumblr media
Or do you bring a refillable container plus a purification system? Whether filter or other options, it’s the smart, healthy thing to always purify natural water resources. In the winter, open water can be hard to find or access, which can mean you’d also need a way to heat and melt snow. The winter season 10 Essentials at some parks can include bringing a stove and fuel.
How do you like to plan ahead for hydration for your winter fun at Mount Rainier? ~ams

3 miles on snowshoes before lunch! The path was pretty uneven, but still a good workout. Snowshoe walking is so much slower than walking 😂
