Nisqually Vista Loop

This short trail loops through wildflower meadows and offers grand views down onto one of the park's largest glaciers--the Nisqually. Unfortunately, this glacier is retreating faster than most, too, so it is shrinking more each year. Take the kids to show them this changing landscape--it's a great lesson in climate change.
