Submitted by Janet.

Each year, thousands of mountain climbers and day-hikers travel up the snowfield to Camp Muir, which sits on the mountain’s south side at nearly 10,200 feet above sea level. This isn’t an activity for the unprepared. The hike from Paradise is about nine miles round trip, with an elevation gain of about 4,700 feet.

  1. Wow, that looks more like Antarctica than Washington 🙂 Looks pretty desolate. You’d have to be pretty nuts to try and hike that thing.
