Rainier 110: A great day to hike Stevens Canyon
Posted by Craig Hill @ 04:46:30 pm

I hiked about 13 miles in Stevens Canyon this morning. Yes, the road is still closed at Box Canyon, but it scheduled to open by Aug. 1.

Including today's hikes (and the hiking Sunrise package that runs Sunday) I've hiked 69 miles in the park this summer. The goal is 110 miles in honor of the park's 110th anniversary.

Here's a pic I snapped from Bench Lake.
