Mowich River, Wonderland Trail — Tuesday, Aug. 14, 2007

Mount Rainier Area > NW - Carbon River/Mowich

Spent about 7 hours walking in and out of the Mowich Valley twice. The trail is wide, smooth and gentle, mostly in the forest, but with some good views of Tahoma from a blowdown area 2 miles down the start of the trail, from the crossing area, and on the start of the ridge heading southeast towards Golden Lakes. Saw two parties on the trail and quite a few cars heading to Mowich Lake up the road. No bugs to speak of.
