THE BEST HIKE IN THE SUNRISE AREA OF MOUNT RAINIER NATIONAL PARK: BURROUGHS MOUNTAIN TRAIL

Рет қаралды 1,521

Ай бұрын

Burroughs Mountain Trail is among one of the best hikes in Sunrise and should be considered by anyone visiting the area. The Sunrise area of Mount Rainier National Park sits at an elevation of 6,400 feet and is the highest point that can be reached by vehicle. Sunrise offers nearly 360-degree views of the surrounding valleys, Mount Rainier, and other volcanoes in the Cascade Range such as Mount Adams. These views and an excellent trail system up near Sunrise Visitor Center make this area the second most visited location in the park. With close-up views of the massive Emmons Glacier and multiple acres of meadows bursting with wildflowers, Sunrise rivals the more popular Paradise area when it comes to scenic splendor.

Did the 3 Burroughs twice. It is without a doubt a favorite of mine. I love being above tree line the whole time and enjoying the amazing views.

Whole family is looking sharp in their sun hoodies and pants! I love seeing people being protected by proper clothing- the high alpine is no place for shorts and tank tops. That's a lesson I learned the hard way myself in the past 😂 I hope you share your Camp Muir hike! Did that one myself years back but have no photos, so it will be cool to see it again through your adventure.

Thanks! We've learned the hard way in the past as well 🤣 ya live and ya learn. Camp Muir is coming next month 👍🏼😁 glad you are watching! Cheers!

Love the videos. What video camera are you using? Very good quality.

@TheMountainMatt Ай бұрын

Thank you! I shoot with a GH5 with a couple different lumix lenses. The girls have the newer iphones. The cameras in them are so good! I also have GoPro's for some POV shots in certain situations.

Thank you very much! I didn’t think it would be as gorgeous as it was for some reason, I was completely blown away. It’s incredible in person!

Outstanding scenery as usual. Mt. Ranier looks incredible!!

@TheMountainMatt Ай бұрын

I liked Rainier WAY more than I thought I would. That volcano can't be accurately described with words and the camera can't really capture the enormity. The following day was incredible!

@leestamm3187 Ай бұрын

My wife and I did this hike in 1981. Glad to see it still looks great.

That's awesome Lee! That volcano is incredible up close, we got even closer the following day 😃

Man can i ask what day you guys did this? We did this hike august 10 2023 and the conditions look identical to the day we were here. It would be crazy if it was the same day haha!

Hilarious! I just looked at the metadata from a photo from that day and sure enough it says August 10, 2023! Small world 😃! So cool!

Burroughs Mountain does have three peaks named First, Second, and Third Burroughs, but they are not "burroughs." Burroughs Mountain was named after John Burroughs, an American naturalist (late 1800s-early 1900s).
