Hike to Carbon Glacier

Two weeks in a row, the weather was supposed to be rainy and cold on the days that I decided to go hiking. And, I’ve had great luck that has not been the case. Last week I did a short 7-mile hike to Carbon Glacier through temperate rain forest and sub-alpine meadowed areas, reaching the bottom tip of the glacier at around 3,600 feet.

Somehow I didn't imagine that it would be so beautiful.

The hike to Carbon Glacier is about an hour and a half outside of Seattle in Mt. Rainier National Park.

I bought an annual pass, so that I can explore more when the weather gets a bit warmer. As soon as the snow melts and the higher-elevated parts of the park are open, I plan on visiting Paradise.
