Grove of the Patriarchs Loop, Silver Falls Loop — Wednesday, Jun. 30, 2021

Mount Rainier Area > SE - Cayuse Pass/Stevens Canyon

Pleasantly warm Wednesday hike to Mt Rainier area. The trailhead parking area was crowded, but we managed to find a spot off the side of the road. We visited the Grove of the Patriarchs first, then did the Silver Falls Loop.

The Grove was quite crowded, with a wait of 10-15 minutes to cross the suspension bridge. But I hadn't seen the big trees for many years so it was worth it.

The Silver Falls Loop was not crowded at all, and it was fantastic to see all the water booming down the falls. Plenty of shade and views of the beautiful river.
