Thanks you two! Brought back some great memories from my own trip on the WT in 2023. It was with Sierra Club, so a larger group. Was Dick Creek still your favorite camp? We had lunch there but it wasn't one of our camps. I think like many people I would have to say Indian Bar was my favorite, though I really liked Mystic Lake and Ipsut Creek too (we did Ipsut Pass, not Spray Park). We went in Sept, so we had like no mosquitoes, but the yellow jackets were terrible. I was stung 6 times during the trip. Someone else in our party was the "winner" though with 8 stings. Puyallup is like "pew-alup". I know, people have hard time with that one. The WT was awesome--I had wanted to do it for years and was so happy to accomplish it. Beautiful video.
Glad you enjoyed it! Dick creek was specially because it had some great views and we had it to ourselves but Indian bar was great too! Oof no bee stings for us but a ton of mosquitos and flys! Mystic lake and golden lakes seemed like great camps too. Overall our fav backpacking trail to date! Thankful we got to experience it
Yeah we got super lucky with the weather. It dumped rain the day before we left and people on the trail said it was totally miserable. Thankfully for us, rain before we started meant everything was fresh and green.

You got some amazing weather. I spent a few days at Mt Rainier in August (flew into town) and had a lot of cloudy weather while there.

Tons of beautiful shots in this
Thank you so much! Takes a lot of extra energy to set them up which is a lot for already tired legs haha
Awesome trek! 🎉
Thank you! One we'll remember for the rest of our lives.
