Bruni's Snow Bowl Hut — Tuesday, Jan. 6, 2026

Mount Rainier Area > SW - Longmire/Paradise
Hut in the sun

Spent the night at the hut. Always fun and this time especially fun with friends and the hut manager and another lovely ski patrol lady. The hut is in excellent shape with everything you need and more. We arrived on Tuesday and parked at the upper lot. There was no snow on the road. I left on Wednesday and there was another story. It snowed a lot and lot and road had about 6in of snow. It was fine to drive on it, but the snow was about to continue, so maybe lower lot would better in the future. Also, we decided not to bring snowshoes and we did not need going in. The next day we could have used them. They will be necessary after the few days of snow.
