Explore the Carbon River Rainforest Trail through a series of waysides in the Mount Rainier Virtual Tour. The rare inland temperate rainforest is a result of abundant rainfall and mild temperatures found in the Carbon River Valley. Rich in old growth trees, the area is thick with huge, moss-covered Sitka spruce, Douglas-fir and western red cedar. Beneath the intertwined canopy of trees is a thick understory of plants.

Find the Carbon River Rainforest Trail waysides on the Mount Rainier Virtual Tour.
