Yesterday me and two friends drove around the Mt. Rainier Loop. Its about a 4 hour drive but we stopped multiple times along the way. We had a great time driving around all the switchbacks and up/down all the hills.

Gauging interest in a cruise sometime end-of-July to do the same. It would a great drive for all of us. It is $15 per car to enter the National Park...so keep that in mind. I bought a year long pass on sunday for $30 and its good until the end of June next year since I feel I will be taking this route several more times this summer. As a meeting spot for this trip, Sumner/Bonney Lake would serve as a good starting point. We would end up finishing on Hwy 7 in Spanaway/Tacoma area. Or we could end at my house with a BBQ since it is at the end of the route and I have plenty of parking

We took a ton of pictures, here are a couple.

I'm in. Always wanted to do that one.

 

I would love to do that cruise. Can we plan it for the end of July? I will be out of town from the 15th-23rd.

 

Sure, was just checking to see if anyone would like to do this. Im going to update the origianl post with a list and possible dates.

 

looks very cool. I might be in, but too far out to say at this point.

 

I vote for the 30th.

Paradise is such a fun drive. I'm in for late July.

 

Indeed it is, I usually go with friends on motorcycles, but considering I have an Evo now I actually had more fun than on the bikes.

 

Really like those shots . 4 hour loop, were you tired after?

 

Well I was exhausted from the lack of sleep the morning before. I wasn't home from our saturday night adventure until like 4:15am and didn't fall asleep until like 5am. Then woke up at 8 am on sunday to get ready and meet up with my friends. The drive honestly woke me up and with all the stops we made being a chance to get out and stretch made things easier.

There is a spot on Forest Service Road 73 that has a bit of an open area were we proceeded to do multiple AWD donuts
