The Wonderland Trail around Mount Rainier (ep 7): Summerland to Granite Creek

During their second longest day on trail, the girls get an early start…not! They wake to cold temperatures and discuss procrastinating vs productivity. After literally taking candy from strangers, they discuss the phenomenon of every snack someone else brings being better than the ones you brought. Portions of the discussion lead to the real question: has Molly been cryogenically frozen? After leaving camp, they enjoy a big day, cross frying pan creek, remember the cruelty of the sudden, hidden uphill, cross the White River and get their resupply. Hear their thoughts on whether or not it’s a good idea to resupply from “hiker buckets”. They go to the Sunrise area and are surprised by their thoughts on the northern region of Rainier. Sunset shenanigans lead to night hiking and the creation of the ballad “We don’t need no trouble”. Their tent site is the location of “spider-maggedon.” Join us for another day on trail!!
