Mt. Tahoma Trails Association
Great views of Mount Rainier are common along the fifty miles of trails. All three huts and the yurt offer views of this mountain and other major peaks of the Cascade Range. Since many portions of the trail are located in areas closed to motor vehicle traffic year around, wildlife sightings are common. Bear, deer, elk, mountain lion, eagles, and other animals have been seen along the access roads and in the trail area. A word of warning . . . storms can and do move into the trail area quickly and can dump three feet of snow overnight. Winds of 80 mph are not uncommon at High Hut; be prepared, don't underestimate this trail.
