Navaho Peak, Navaho Pass — Wednesday, Jul. 23, 2025

The berries are ripe!  I had a hard time not stopping too much to enjoy the berries.  I could have spent all day with just the berries if I weren't out to check on this trail. 
The trail isn't too steep all the way to the pass, but from the pass to the peak, it gets more aggressive.  The trail to the peak is ready to follow; the scree holds well to the hill, so traction is adequate.  
I couldn't find a summit register, not an easy place to go, so I was surprised not to find it. 
Rainier was faint because of the haze and scattered clouds on the west side.
Only two hikers and two on mt bikes the whole day.  Wednesday is a good day to hike up there?
