Nice snow free hike with some mountaintop viewing. I encountered some haziness way off in the distance blocking views of Seattle, Tacoma and Mt. St. Helens but Mt Rainier looked stunning as usual. The sun was out in full force but luckily this is a shaded trail thanks to the tons of rhododendrons. Most hikers brought their 4 legged friends so there was a meeting of the dogs at the top. A great hike if your knees are ok with the steep slope.
