Shriner Peak — Friday, Jul. 10, 1998

Mount Rainier Area > SE - Cayuse Pass/Stevens Canyon

The trail is beautiful and snow free all the way to the top. We hiked the trail today and, despite the fact that it was a mid summer Saturday, only 6 cars were at the trailhead. As always, there is no water, but there is a large patch of snow at the lookout. I recommend a minimum of 2 quarts of water per hiker, if I can be so presumptuous. Deborah, Jack and Elliott will understand.
