Spring here starts in April and lasts through June, and it is a season of contrasts. In fact, it's not unusual for us to go hiking, biking, skiing and snowshoeing all in one week! The lower elevation trails around Alta Crystal Resort have already largely melted out (with great waterfall hikes). But the upper elevations still have lots of snow, and Crystal will be open spring weekends for skiing and scenic Mt. Rainier Gondola rides. The road through Mt. Rainier National Park is also expected to open in early May. Read below to learn more.
