Started at the South trailhead.
The garbage bin here at the trailhead has been full and overflowing for weeks.
Went south from here towards mount Rainer park.
The trail isn't easy to follow, it's vague. Quite a lot of trees down over the trail too. A lot of trash along the trail near the airstrip and dispersed camping sites. One dodgy looking camp over the edge near the airstrip, extreme caution is needed.
I feel if this section of the hike was used more often, it would be improved and much better to hike. Section was 5 miles round trip.
This trail info on wta should really show the full trail length of about 15 miles round trip, not what's listed.
