Magnificent setting

Doesn't get much better than watching the sunset behind Rainier at a flower adorned stream flowing through a subalpine meadow.

It's even got a fully enclosed privy and 5G cell service -- no issues video chatting with family.

Only knock against it is sites themselves don't quite have a clear view of the mountain as they're well protected by trees. Also a little bit of a walk (downhill) to the aforementioned stream for water, but it's a place we kept going back to for the views anyway.

Lots of marmots, including in the camping areas. Seemed more interested in munching on lupines than bothering us.

Caution

Beautiful hike. Lots of animal life and plant life. The sites are pretty much as big as you want them to be LOL. The scenery is immaculate. The reason I give caution is Mount Rainier likes to create its own weather. Got trapped and a thunderstorm well there with torrential downpours.
