ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Mount Rainier National Park, the country's fourth-oldest park, has a fascinating history of preservation. Most visitors go to see the iconic Mount Rainier, which juts out abruptly along the horizon, twice the height of its surrounding peaks. Mount Rainier has a relatively short visiting season, and most visitors see the park in July and August, so visiting in a way that doesn't feel overwhelming takes some extra planning.
In this podcast, we describe what Mount Rainier is all about, how to get to the park, where to sleep, what to do, and everything in between. Plus we answer a few of your questions about visiting Mount Rainier: what are some great hikes in the park? What should you do if the mountain is covered with clouds?
