Rally at Rainier

Together with The Mission Continues, a military veterans’ service organization, and the National Park Service, we’ll #FixOurParks at Mount Rainier. We are joining forces to improve the trail system around Paradise in preparation for the busy visitor season.

After the service project concludes, stick around the park and join NPCA and The Mission Continues for a BBQ at the Longmire Stewardship Campground at 4 p.m. Free camping is also available at the campground (see Other Info below for details).
