Mount Rainier National Park in Washington reopens to the public Saturday, and all services with the exception of snow play will be available this weekend.
Ranger-guided snowshoe walks, offered weekends at 12:30 and 2:30 p.m. will be available. Sign up on a first-come-first served basis at the Jackson Visitor Center. See www.nps.gov/mora for more information.
The park has been closed since ranger Margaret Anderson was shot to death on New Year’s Day trying to stop a car that failed to pull over at a checkpoint requiring drivers to put chains on their vehicles.
