NO BEARS!!! One reason for doing this hike before the road closes, is to get a good chance at seeing bears. It appears the bears have moved on already. No one that I talked to saw any bears.
Another reason is to see fall foliage and Mt Rainier in her glory. Today was a sunny, warm day, with lots of pretty views. I skipped going to Spray Falls today but did hike all the way thru the park to the turn of Observation Rock. I had lunch on a rock about 100 yards up the Observation Rock trail.
I also enjoy seeing mushrooms in the park. I did see several but not as many as in past years.
This is a good weekend for Spray Park and for Tolmie Lookout.

Sorry about the lack of bears. I was the fellow headed down with my daughter. Great chatting with you. I know the bears weren’t to far away but always seemed just out of reach.
