Day Hike - Green Lake (Mount Rainier)

Huge trees along the road portion and one of the prettiest forest trails I have been on up to the lake.

  • Moderate
  • Moderate
  • Mileage: 10.0 mi
  • Elevation Gain: 1,300 ft
  • High Point Elevation: 3,300 ft
  • Pace: 2.5 on the road, 2.0 on the rest, no maximum

6:30 AM at the Bonney Lake Park and Ride, we will probably be back  there around 2:00 so should miss the worst of rush hour. 

With the current forecast, there should not be snow (I'll keep you posted).
