A Misty Sunrise Over "The Mountain" And Tipsoo Lake, Mount Rainier National Park, Washington State
Located about 1/4 mile (0.4 km) past the Chinook Pass Entrance Arch on Washington SR 410, you will pass a long paved parking area to your right for the overlook to Tipsoo Lake, a subalpine lake set in a glacier-carved basin. That will be your first glimpse of Mount Rainier ("The Mountain," as locals like to call it) in Mount Rainier National Park as you continue driving into the park. There is a large parking area further down the road where you can park your car and hike around Tipsoo Lake.
