Tolmie Peak Lookout - Eunice Lake — Sunday, Aug. 1, 2010

Mount Rainier Area > NW - Carbon River/Mowich

The kids sat in their backpack through parts of the hike. If you are a new hiker and its not a clear day, don't bother going up to Tolmie Peak with little ones. Our 4 yr olds were exhausted and to not see Mt. Rainier and to be eaten alive by the bugs was too much. We completely sprayed ourselves but we are home with big welts all over. Also the squirrels at the top are super eager for scraps and one jumped onto my lap. Scared my kids to death!
