Epic Backpacking Trip Around Mt Rainier's Wonderland Trail going counterclockwise!
Wonderland Trail Description (Going Counterclockwise)
The Wonderland Trail is a 93-mile trail that circumnavigates Mt Rainier. Per the online trail description it is 93 miles (~149 kilometers) and has an elevation change of 22,000ft (6,706 meters) with virtually no flat sections of trail. We chose to plan our itinerary with our hike going counterclockwise around Mount Rainier as it looked like this could give be better for our knees by having some of the steeper sections as ascents instead of descents. We had multiple climbs that went on for miles (one was more than 6 miles straight!), we had to ford high rivers and creeks, and we endured a full day of rain that soaked us to the core. My brother John started to show beginning signs of hypothermia. Luckily for him having gone on numerous adventures with me over the years his body is quite used to this situation, LOL! I am so grateful that I got to have my brother John, my cousin Jason, and my good friend Heath with my for this epic adventure. All distances and elevations in the description and the video came from my Garmin Fenix 6. I will say that there were days where we went a little extra , the path was washed out, or we didn’t take the direct path. If you decide to complete the wonderland trail you should be prepared with the knowledge and tools needed to navigate and survive in mountainous backwoods conditions without expecting to rely on others. We did enjoy getting trail reports from people coming clockwise around the trail, but even those can be misleading. I have been on many adventures in my life and if you’ve been with me you know that there are times when other are turning back, saying there is no route, or “it will be impossible to cross” and I will typically go assess and analyze for myself only to discover that I find those assessments from others to be completely false for me and my group. We encountered a lot of “trail angels” during this trip giving advice, intel, and help. Only at one time on our last day did we receive horrible advice from what I deemed “Trail Devils” that led to extra milage going the wrong way over the boulder fields after we crossed Kautz Creek on some logs. Well, buckle up and get ready for a ride!
WONDERLAND TRAIL DAY 1 – Narada Falls to Indian Bar (17+ Miles & 4,744ft ascent according to the Garmin Fenix 6) | EPIC Start to the Adventure! ️
Welcome to Day 1 of our Wonderland Trail journey—and WOW, what a day! We kicked off our counterclockwise adventure bright and early at Narada Falls, dropped into the trail, and immediately started earning those views.
We powered through 17+ grueling miles with over 4,700 feet of climbing, but the rewards were INSANE:
Reflection Lakes in the morning glow
Forests bursting with ripe wild berries
Refreshing creek stops to purify water & refuel
High alpine meadows exploding with wildflowers
️ And jaw-dropping views of Mt. Rainier around every bend
WONDERLAND TRAIL DAY 2 | Indian Bar to White River Campground (13 Miles & 2,651ft of ascent according to the Garmin Fenix 6)
Hiking Panhandle Gap, Heath breaking a trekking pole, AND experiencing a trail miracle!
WONDERLAND TRAIL DAY 3 | White River to Granite Creek (10 Miles& 3,222ft ascent according to the Garmin Fenix 6) + TRAIL MAGIC at Sunrise! ️
Rainier summit views, root beer floats, glacier sounds, and the heaviest packs of the trip—Day 3 had it ALL!
TRAIL MAGIC: we arrived at Sunrise Visitor Center to find Jason’s parents (my Aunt & Uncle) waiting with our food cache AND surprise trail treats—watermelon, camp chairs, and ROOT BEER FLOATS
Our descent into Granite Creek Camp brought one of the most beautiful water sources of the trip. I jumped into the creek for my last bath until the inn at Longmire after we finished the trail 5 days later.
WONDERLAND TRAIL DAY 4: Lost Phones, Torrential Rain & Trail Miracles (Granite Creek → Cataract Valley) ️
12+ MILES | 3,000+ ft of ascent | HEAVY RAIN | GLACIAL CREEKS | SUSPENSION BRIDGES | EMOTIONAL HIGHS & LOWS
WONDERLAND TRAIL DAY 5: Cataract Valley to South Mowich River (13 Miles via Spray Park with detours (2,575 elevation ascent per Garmin Fenix 6) ️
Day 5 on the Wonderland Trail delivers a raw and rugged slice of backcountry life — wet boots, scree fields, foggy ridgelines, and unexpected blessings.
WONDERLAND TRAIL DAY 6: South Mowich River ️ North Puyallup River (12.34 Miles & 2,884ft ascent per Garmin Fenix 6)
️ Wild blueberries, hidden creeks, and an unforgettable testimony meeting in the backcountry
WONDERLAND TRAIL DAY 7: North Puyallup to South Puyallup (7.5 Miles & 2,700ft ascent according to the Garmin Fenix 6) | Epic Mountain Views & Berry Bonanza! ️
Highlights: Rainier views, geological wonders, wild berries
WONDERLAND TRAIL DAY 8 (Final Day): South Puyallup River Camp to Narada Falls to complete the entire Wonderland Trail (18+ Miles and ~5,000 feet of ascent according to the Garmin Fenix 6) ️

雷尼尔山国家公园
逆时针环绕雷尼尔山仙境小径的史诗级背包旅行！
仙境小径描述（逆时针）
仙境小径是一条环绕雷尼尔山的93英里（约149公里）的小径。根据在线小径描述，它全长93英里（约149公里），海拔高度变化达22,000英尺（6,706米），几乎没有平坦的路段。我们选择逆时针绕雷尼尔山徒步，因为看起来这样可以让一些较陡的路段上坡而不是下坡，对我们的膝盖更有利。我们多次攀登数英里（其中一次直线距离超过6英里！），不得不涉过湍急的河流和小溪，还忍受了一整天的雨水，浑身湿透。我的弟弟约翰开始出现体温过低的迹象。幸运的是，这些年来他已经陪我一起经历过无数次冒险，他的身体已经很习惯这种情况了，哈哈！我很感激我的兄弟约翰、表弟杰森和我的好朋友希思陪我经历了这场史诗般的冒险。描述和视频中的所有距离和海拔都来自我的 Garmin Fenix 6。我要说的是，有些日子我们走得有点远，路被冲毁了，或者我们没有走直线路。如果你决定完成这条仙境之路，你应该准备好在山区边远地区导航和生存所需的知识和工具，而不要指望依赖别人。我们确实很高兴收到顺时针绕着这条小径来的人们的路线报告，但即使是这些报告也可能具有误导性。我一生中经历过许多冒险，如果你也和我一起经历过，你就会知道，有时候别人会打退堂鼓，说没有路，或者说“根本过不去”。而我通常会亲自去评估和分析，结果却发现，别人的评估对我和我的团队来说完全是错误的。在这次旅行中，我们遇到了很多“步道天使”，他们给我们提供建议、情报和帮助。只有在最后一天，我们才收到了一些我认为是“步道魔鬼”的糟糕建议，导致我们在穿过考茨溪（Kautz Creek）的一些原木后，在巨石区逆行了额外的里程。好了，系好安全带，准备出发吧！
仙境步道第一天 – 从纳拉达瀑布到印第安酒吧（根据Garmin Fenix 6的数据，行程超过17英里，海拔4,744英尺）| 史诗级冒险之旅的开端！ ️
欢迎来到我们仙境小径之旅的第一天——哇，真是精彩的一天！我们一大早就从纳拉达瀑布开启了逆时针的冒险之旅，踏上小径，立刻开始欣赏沿途的美景。
我们奋力跋涉了超过17英里的路程，攀登了超过4700英尺的高度，但收获的回报却令人难以置信：
晨曦中的倒影湖
盛开着成熟野生浆果的森林
清爽的小溪小憩，净化水源，补充能量
高山草甸上野花盛开
️ 以及每个弯道都能欣赏到雷尼尔山的壮丽景色
仙境小径第二天 | 从印第安酒吧到白河露营地（根据Garmin Fenix 6的数据，全程13英里，攀登2651英尺）
徒步穿越狭长地带峡谷，穿过希思，折断了一根登山杖，体验了一次小径奇迹！
仙境小径第三天 |从怀特河到花岗岩溪（10 英里，根据 Garmin Fenix 6 记录，上升了 3,222 英尺）+ 日出时的神奇步道！️
雷尼尔山峰的景色、根汁汽水漂浮、冰川之声，以及旅途中最重的背包——第三天，一切都完美！
神奇步道：我们到达日出游客中心时，发现杰森的父母（我的叔叔和婶婶）正拿着我们储备的食物和惊喜的步道礼物——西瓜、露营椅和根汁汽水漂浮——等着我们。
下到花岗岩溪营地，我们遇到了旅途中最美丽的水源之一。我跳进溪里洗了最后一次澡，直到五天后我们完成步道，回到朗迈尔的旅馆。
仙境步道第四天：丢失的手机、倾盆大雨和步道奇迹（花岗岩溪 → 卡塔拉特山谷）️
12+ 英里 | 3,000+ 英尺的上升 | 大雨 | 冰川小溪 | 悬索桥 |情绪的起伏
仙境小径第五天：卡塔拉特谷至南莫维奇河（途经斯普雷公园，全程13英里，沿途绕行（Garmin Fenix 6 记录海拔上升2,575英尺）️
仙境小径第五天将带您体验原始而崎岖的偏远地区生活——湿漉漉的靴子、碎石场、雾气弥漫的山脊，以及意想不到的收获。
仙境小径第六天：南莫维奇河 ️ 北普亚勒普河（Garmin Fenix 6 记录海拔12.34英里，上升2,884英尺）
️ 野生蓝莓、隐秘的小溪，以及在偏远地区难忘的见证会
