The trail,
from Klapatche to Pyramid Creek, traverses the toe of Tahoma Glacier.
A suspension bridge spans turbulent Tahoma Creek, essential for a
safe crossing, right. The bridge sways, so crossing with a heavy pack
requires slow, measured steps. The oldest ranger cabin, built in 1915,
stands at Indian Henry's Hunting Ground, above. It, and all other
original cabins are still used. Mirror Lakes, left, are the reward
for hiking to the northeast end of the hunting ground trail. Tahoma
Glacier runs off Mt Rainier's west face beyond its lake copy. |
