Berkeley Park, Skyscraper Mountain — Tuesday, Jul. 4, 2017

Mount Rainier Area > NE - Sunrise/White River

Hiked from Sunrise to Berkeley Park and proceeded on to Granite Creek past Skyscraper Pass/Mountain. The trail had some snowfields but were very obvious to pass. We hiked down to the Granite Creek campsite which is on the way to Mystic Lake. Overall a great 10 mile hike with over 30!! mountain goats lounging about on the glacier. Took us about 5 hours RT. Just head from Sunrise on the Wonderland as long as you want and hopefully you too can make it to Granite Creek camp or further to Mystic Lake and then Moraine Park and see some amazing mountain goats.

Good to know...leading a hike to Berkeley Park on the 29th, so by your info, we shouldn't have any snow to cross by then.

Question - were there many wildflowers in bloom when you hiked Berkeley Park?
