Fremont Lookout, Sourdough Ridge & Shadow Lake - Sunrise Camp Loop — Wednesday, Jul. 7, 2021

  Headed up to the Fremont Lookout via Sourdough Ridge. The trail is in great condition. Beautiful views of Mount Rainier this morning and the trail was not very busy. The bugs were not bad as there was a slight breeze. The flowers are just starting and should be blooming nicely in a week or two. Heading back down, we opted to take the Wonderland and hike past Shadow Lake. The Wonderland has two snow patches between Frozen Lake and the Sunrise Camp. I wore trail runners and was fine but you may slip a little bit in this section. Only wildlife we saw were marmots who were hanging out on the trail. A herd of elk ran across the road just outside of Greenwater so be careful driving. Another beautiful day on the mountain!
