Wrong turn into Mount Rainier


With only a few hours to spare on the way home, we made it a point to visit Mount Rainier, National Park. To our folly, we didn't check the endpoint when mapping our route in the GPS and ended up taking a detour to a remote entrance two hours out of the way. We made the most of our mistake exploring an area of the park we wouldn't have commonly seen and enjoyed the extra time of the great conversation. Once back into cell service we mapped our way around the north side of the park gaining a view of the mountain we would not have seen otherwise. We made a little bit of time to stretch out our legs and explored wash out before heading home.
