After we left Mowich Lake Campground, my buddy and I decided to take the Spray Park trail instead of the Wonderland Trail Proper. I read in Bette Filley's book, "Discovering The Wonders of the Wonderland Trail" that Spray Park offers some magnificent views of Rainier whereas the Wonderland Trail is more forested and covered. The only catch is that if it's bad weather, Spray Park is absolutely miserable as there is no cover and it's the highest point on the trail. Thankfully we lucked out and had blue skies and great views! Here is a black and white photo of the Spray Park Trail Landscape and cool sky, close to the Carbon River Campground.

Here is a photo of Donoho Peak and Root Glacier as my hiking buddy and myself were making our way across the Glacier to set up camp for the night.
