Wanted to go up to Spray Falls, so drove to Paul Peak trailhead, where Road to Mowich Lake is gated. Road there is in typical bad condition with areas of significant potholes. Snow free to Mowich Lake- Grindstone trail has been improved with new markers set in the trees. Fairly easy to find trail from the road. Mowich Lake was calm and very reflective today. Trail to Spray Falls in great shape snow-free all the way. Beautiful Mt Rainier view on short spur from trail about .1 miles from Spray Falls. Spray Falls was in its typical glorious state.
Don't know how much longer we can expect this area to be snow free, but sure made it an easy trip today with the warm weather and sunshine. About 11.5 miles round trip from gate to Spray Falls,
