This shoulder season one-night overnight backpack trip was a perfect outing before the weather turned. The 10-12 year olds had little difficulty with the route and the lake was gorgeous.

A grand fall color tour in Mount Rainier National Park, of peaks and ridges in the area just south of the Carbon River. This was a S5/T5 scramble (~5400’ gain/~16 miles), but a technically easier (yet longer) S5/T1 variation would skip Gove and use the Ipsut Creek Trail instead.
