Sentinel imagery shows the route mostly melted out, but lingering upper-elevation snow may make this a hike/scramble blend.

This is a Rainier 100 list peak that is often done as a hike, but early-season conditions may make it feel more like a hike/scramble blend. Expect a long day with a long drive, possible lingering snow, and some off-trail navigation near the summit. Weather is expected to be beautiful, and we will likely have plenty of flowers along the way.
Meet at the trailhead at 7:45 AM. Please arrive with enough time to be geared up and ready for boots on the trail at 8:00 AM.
No amenities at the trailhead.
