The shift from fall to winter conditions happens quickly on Mount Rainier. Paradise and other subalpine areas have already seen some snow, and more is likely this weekend. When visiting, plan ahead and remember you are responsible for your safety.

Before leaving home, check the current trail conditions and heed local weather forecasts, realizing weather can change for the worse in a very short period of time. Before starting your hike, stop by the Longmire Museum or Jackson Visitor Center in the southwest part of the park, or the Carbon River Ranger Station in the northwest, for the latest trail conditions. Note: While SR410/123 on the east side of the park are still open, all eastside visitor facilities have closed for the season.

Always carry survival gear with you in case you have to spend the night out, including the 10 Essentials: food, water, warm clothing, emergency shelter, stove/fuel, flashlight, avalanche transceiver/probe/shovel, map/compass/GPS, first aide kit, & repair kit for any equipment.

Wear footwear with good tread to minimize risks from slipping. Consider using traction devices like shoe chains or hiking poles for extra stability.

You may need a reliable map and compass skills to traverse snow-covered trails, which can be difficult to follow, particularly in backcountry areas.

Know your limits. Know your experience and ability to survive in an alpine environment and don’t exceed them. A trail that is easy in summer can be challenging in winter.

Five pictures were added to developingnaturegallery.com to begin the creation of the Mount Rainier folder. Kimberly used to live near this National Park and so, she will be adding a few pictures of the volcano, waterfalls, mountain peaks and wildlife images that she created inside the park here/there over the coming years.

If you're getting snow this weekend, stay safe.

Have a great weekend everyone!

[tahomaweekend]

After a great day of poking around the trails as we entered the park through the Stevens Canyon entrance- I got in 5 1/2 miles and Ben about 6 1/2/we checked into our room at the Paradise Inn, a National Park lodge, cracked open some bubbly, opened up some Gruyère and enjoyed happy hour with a view of the Tatoosh range. Cold mountain air with that awesome alpine smell of lichen and Douglas firs pouring in through the window. Are we in Switzerland or Washington? You be the judge.

Mountain Memories: Pinnacle Peak Climb

Another popular guided activity during the 1920s-30s was climbing Pinnacle Peak in the Tatoosh Range. It took around six to eight hours round trip leaving from the Paradise Valley and cost $4 per person in 1920, including clothing rental. The Pinnacle Peak Trail continues to be a popular route to this day.
