On this two night trip, we camped at the Ohanapecosh campground, drove up to Paradise for quick fall color exploration, then spent a full day hiking next to the Ohanapecosh River on the Silver Falls and Grove of Patriarchs trails.
On this four day backpacking trip at Mount Rainier, we camped at Berkeley Park and did day hikes to Skyscraper Pass and Second Burroughs Mountain.
We spent three days camping at Ohanapecosh Campground and doing short hikes at Paradise and Sunrise.
Backpacking in the winter is quite different from ‘regular’ backpacking. There’s a lot of extra gear needed to dig a base for a tent and stay warm overnight while camping on top of snow. While this was my fourth time backpacking in the winter, it was also my last.
