Interpretive signs along the trail explain the geology, plants, animals and fire history of the area. Visitors will also enjoy traversing the Chinook Scenic Byway, considered one of Washington's premier driving excursions. Spectacular views of Mount Rainier, old-growth forests, alpine peaks, jagged ridges and river canyons dominate this 92-mile journey. In addition to trails open to multiple uses within 10 miles of the campground, there are also opportunities for gold panning, hunting, and fishing.
