About Mount Rainier
The most glaciated peak in the Lower 48 and Seattle's backdrop. Paradise measures snow in the tens of feet — check conditions before any season.
Summit temperature is estimated from the Paradise forecast using the −6.5°C/1,000 m lapse rate. Expect much stronger wind and lower visibility on the tops, and treat the freezing level as a guide rather than a measurement.
