Sunrise Road on Mt. Rainier
Posted on Monday, 25 August 2008
Saturday was being hailed as quite possibly our last day of summer, so we decided to head up to Sunrise Road on Mount Rainier. I had never been to Rainier from that side, and it looked like an easily do-able afternoon ride.
We left from Maple Valley, riding side-roads to Black Diamond and 169, and from Enumclaw we followed 410. We stopped briefly in Greenwater, where we ran into Robert’s sister and brother-in-law taking a break. The next time we stopped was at the last turn towards the top of Sunrise. The lot was busy, but it was still nice to be away from the city. If I did it again I would leave earlier to allow time for exploration. Mount Rainier is always impressive, and it was a fabulous ride.
