I took a ride in August to Mount Rainier National Park. I got on the road at 5:30 to avoid some traffic

Nice pictures, looks like you had a very good day. I was just up there a few weeks ago, similar experience.

Wow, super photos. You are definitely scenery blessed and taking it all in with wind in your face on a Vespa. Life doesn't get better.

That's awesome...especially on a Primavera!

As a big guy who started on a 150, I recall the uphills weren't always fun, particularly with traffic.

A year late, but beautiful pics! So much so I registered an account to reply. I love hiking Rainier, hope to ride up there someday though I live on the opposite coast so it looks like I will have to rent.

Great shots - what a lovely spot to ride around.
I realize this was originally posted last year (2024) - have you been back, since?

I have not been back this year, but our group is interested in going. We will wait for early fall, when the tourists are gone and the timed entry is ended for the season.
