Trip
Winter Scramble - Burnt Park Loop
Sweeping views of Burnt Park and Mount Rainier as we stroll along meadow crested ridges. We may even have a few early season flowers due to the reduced snowfall this year. This strenuous traverse (4000’ gain, 10 miles) delivers seldom visited terrain (of the human kind, lots of Elk ;).
