This trail was recommended by Skookum, and I'm glad to have done it. 7.5 mile climb 4 miles of sustained downhill.. 2400' of WA state goodness.
On the way to the trail, nice view of Mt. Rainier
Around mile 3 of the climb - perfect weather
A little scenery on the way up
More climing
Looking back down at mile 5 from mile 7
Nice view of the valley below
Sorry - only 1 pic on the way down... no time for photos
All in all, a pretty outstanding way to spend a Saturday.
