Myrtle Falls

 We did the short hike to Myrtle Falls at Paradise in Mt Rainier National Park. We started from the lower parking lot and made a loop by starting along one trail and returning along another.
Even though Mt Rainier was covered by clouds, Myrtle Falls was beautiful.

 In the distance, we saw that marmots were over by the bridge, so we continued up to check it out.

 We saw about 6 or 7 marmots in this area.

 We watched this marmot perched on the hillside that was covered in avalanche and glacier lilies, until another marmot came and pushed him off.
















Ground squirrel

Also saw some Pasque flowers beginning to bloom.
