Here's some amazing views from the Sheep Lake/Sourdough Gap area in Washington state, just east of Mt. Rainer. It's on the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail (PCT), accessed through Chinook Pass. Check to make sure the pass is still open before you go. #chinookpass #pct #WashingtonState #MtRainer

Golden alpine meadows at Chinook Pass glowing in fall color, framed by rugged cliffs and evergreens. Washington State at its best.

Does anyone out there in the Fediverse know anything about cycling Chinook Pass (Washington SR 410 on the east side of Mount Rainier National Park) before it opens to cars for the season? I believe it has been cleared to the summit from the east. Thinking about checking it out next weekend.
