My family stayed up in Packwood over the weekend (NE of Rainier), and I decided to hike up to Camp Muir on the way home. I only took water, running shoes (and t-shirt/shorts), and a some graham crackers (no shades -- so I used a shirt for protection), so it was sketchy going up Muir snow field. I took pics: http://wes.name/gallery/view_album.php?set_albumName=CampMuir Slid down the ruts on the way down -- the whole hike took about 5 hr. Here's cheesy "foot"-age: http://wes.name/video/MtRainier-MoreSliding.AVI http://wes.name/video/ Not too thrilling -- but the weather was unbelievable.
