Mount Rainier Area > Chinook Pass - Hwy 410

Updated directions: Go two miles south of Greenwater to FS 70. Turn left on 70 and RESET your mileage counter. At 8.2 miles turn left on a paved road that quickly turns to dirt. Continue to a ""tee"" where a tree on the right shows a motorcycle sign and there are several piles of dirt and rock in front of you. Take the left and go to another intersection. Your mileage counter is at 12.6 miles. Bear left (an old sign indicates this road is 7030). At 13.3 miles turn right on 7030 (straight takes you onto 7032). At 14.4 miles from FS70 and 410, find a ratty-looking dirt road to the left. Park and walk the .7 mile to the trailhead. A vehicle like Subaru and up can drive the .7 miles. If I made a mistake in these directions you are now 14.4 miles in on some logging road and you are doomed.
