Spray Park — Friday, Jul. 20, 2001

Mount Rainier Area > NW - Carbon River/Mowich
Trail mostly snow free. Several fairly small and easily negotiated snow patches, and one medium sized one up high. The more significant patch is just past the Mist Park view at about 6200'. Though it is a sidehill crossing, it does not require an ice axe, and should not be a significant problem for your typical weekend hiker. A massive bloom of Avalanche Lillies is underway. Lots of Shooting Star in damp areas. Magenta paintbrush is off to a good start. Lupine just starting in some places, not yet started in others. Too foggy/cloudy to see the Mountain.
