Little Ranger Peak via Ranger Creek — Friday, Apr. 12, 2013

Mount Rainier Area > Chinook Pass - Hwy 410

The trail is snow free and in great shape except one long downed tree that blocks the trail in two places but isn't that hard to get over. It's a nice trail through a lovely forest with a nice summit. The weather was good to us, staying dry until just before we got back to the car. We saw just one other couple all day. And lots of evidence that elk frequent the area.
