Visiting Seattle for the first time this July! We are going to leave Seattle Sunday morning and head out to Mt rainier. Hoping to get an early evening hike in Sunday and then have two full days Monday and Tuesday. Having trouble deciding where to go with limited time, and asked ChatGPT, but it’s hard to trust the suggestions and would love feedback from someone that has been. As background info I am pretty active, but live in Georgia so the hiking is very different.

ChatGPT:

My recommendation for you specifically
Best balance:
Sunday
Partial Skyline at sunset
Monday
Full Skyline/Pebble Creek
Tuesday
Fremont Lookout + Sunrise area
That gives you:
one easier acclimation/scenic day
one major mountain day
one alpine ridgeline day
minimal redundant scenery
