Snowshoeing around Mt. Rainier

By On January 9, 2010 · 20 Comments

WHAT/WHERE
Anna Brones of Under Solen Media takes off on a 4 day back country snowshoeing adventure near Mt. Rainier, showing us just how easy and fun a winter adventure can be!

NETWORK CONNECTION

Snowshoeing is a wonderful way to enjoy the outdoors during the winter months. Snowboarding and Skiing are thrilling but there is something special about moving through a silent, white world one step at a time. As David Miller will be quick to point out, keeping yourself safe on the mountain, regardless of the sport, is priority number one.

    Refreshing, literally. Thanks for sharing.

    Great job!

  • Matt

    Thank you for posting. It’s a great video for showing people who don’t know the MTTA a small part of all the amazing work they do. I think it will help motivate people to get involved.

  • Pat Gleason

    Great info on Mount Tahoma Trails. Hopefully on you’re next trip we’ll have reinstalled the solar lighting system in the Yurt.

    I’m glad you had a peek of the view from High Hut. On a good day, you can see Oregon (Mt. Hood, Mt. Jefferson) and Canada (Vancouver Island and its 7K+ mountain ranges.) Due south, you look right into the crater of Mount St. Helens.

    Wow, what an incredible hut system! Really comforting and inspiring to know such a thing exists. Makes me want to get up in the mountains, too. Kudos to you for making through the snow WHILE videotaping. Impressive.
