Trail Log

• 0.0
  • Trailhead elevation 4,000 feet. The trail starts by climbing a rocky section and then smooths out into a gradual climb as it enters the forest.
• 3.2
  • Trail reaches ridge crest (elevation 6,400 feet). Ride a short distance to obvious viewpoint and get a stunning view of Mt. Rainier. The trail continues climbing up the ridge until you reach the summit of Crystal Mountain.
• 5.6
  • Trail turns into a wider track. If you ski at Crystal then you may start to recognize this section.
• 6.1
  • Reach the summit (elevation 6,872 feet). If it's a sunny summer day expect to share this viewpoint with plenty of other people who came up via chairlift. Although having the lodge here is nice, there is something anti-climatic about being surrounded by kids, parents & grandparents after you have just climbed almost 3,000 feet on sublime single track. You'll smile as you think to yourself, "These people just don't know what it's like."
