Skookum Flats — Wednesday, Dec. 25, 2024

Mount Rainier Area > Chinook Pass - Hwy 410

Beautiful Christmas hike from the northern trailhead to the junction with the Buck Creek Trail.  The trail was muddy in place, with a few downed trees, but nothing that was unmanageable.  The falls were full, but we didn't do the scramble to the base.

The trip started out misty and ended with snow falling down, but not yet accumulating.  Very peaceful way to spend the holiday.  Only saw one other person on the trailhead. 

The bathroom at the Northern trailhead was in need to a cleaning and TP, but useable.
