Alpine Scramble - Mount Wow

Trip

Alpine Scramble - Mount Wow

Beautiful alpine traverse with great views of west side of Mount Rainier that visits Lake Allen as well as the Boundary Trail.

  • Technical 3, Strenuous 4
  • Moderate
  • Mileage: 7.0 mi
  • Elevation Gain: 4,000 ft
  • High Point Elevation: 6,040 ft

Various P&Rs to accommodate attendees, then 7AM just outside the Nisqually entrance.

Great views of the SW aspect of Mount Rainier.  Ideally we will use the Lake Allen off trail route for the ascent, and the Boundary Trail route for the descent.  [DJM: this trip is an alternate destination for an Enchantment Traverse scramble that has been postponed until 2019 due to the impact of forest fire smoke on air quality]
