Hiking and climbing mountains inspired me into this life philosophy - LIFE IS A MOUNTAIN. Every step you make leads to summit. You may be forced to turn around or change routes for any cause, never know. But, stay focused and look forward. The mountain will be there always. Pace yourself and reach "your" summit, for every step counts. Enjoy the view and feed your soul as it comes along. Life is a journey, not a destination. Life is like climbing a mountain.....

Mt. Rainier Snowshoe - Paradise to Muir Snowfield Via Glacier Vista, Panorama Point, The Sugarloaf
May 7, 2017
Snowshoeing
at Mt. Rainier! The mountain's still got tons of snow as of early May, 2017.
The weather was perfect....sunny and warm. There were lots of skiers enjoying
spring skiing, too. This is an epic adventure snowshoeing from Paradise to Muir
Snowfield via Glacier Vista, Panorama Point, Pebble Creek and the Sugarloaf.
Enjoy this amazing winter wonderland in spring and spectacular views of Mt.
Rainier and other Cascades peaks including Tatoosh range, Mt. Adams, Mount St.
Helens and Mt. Hood and beyond.
The snow condition was excellent though it got a little slushy due to the warm
weather. The road to Paradise is clear (required to carry chains) and the gates
are open 24/7 now. Check weather and avalanche conditions before you head up
there. If you are not familiar with Mt. Rainier, contact Mr. Rainier National
Park for information.
