Little Ranger Peak via Ranger Creek — Sunday, May. 1, 2011

Mount Rainier Area > Chinook Pass - Hwy 410

Decided to try a different hike today. the trailhead isnt marked, but follow 410 to greenwater and it's on the left side past mile marker 54 and the buck creek rec. area. the trail was mostly snow free for the first mile then ran into some compact snow, which tampered on and off. the last 3/4 miles to the peak was all snow and had no trouble in just hiking boots. views from the top were great could see the tip of rainier and the air field. not breezy either
