American Ridge, Mesatchee Creek — Friday, Oct. 12, 2007

Mount Rainier Area > Chinook Pass - Hwy 410

October high altitude hike in shorts and t-shirt, who would of thought it? Oscar, my dog, hunted two hunters, barked at them and sent them bushwacking. Reached 6946 ft along American Ridge for epic views. No animals spotted, lots of scat particularly black bear near big basin area. Traces of snow. Great day
