Three words: Authentic Nepalese Food. Can't go to the Himalaya? Try the Wildberry. It is Sherpa owned and quite good. They also have traditional American fare, so everyone can find something they'd like to try.

Parks & Nature

So many great trails start from here, plus there are restroom facilities and dining at the National Park Inn restaurant. A VERY easy hike is the Trail of Shadows, while Eagle Peak is basically the opposite. Check-in with the Park Rangers at the Wilderness Information Center for current trail conditions. Or visit the NPS webpage here: https://www.nps.gov/mora/planyourvisit/wilderness-camping-and-hiking.htm

Open during the summertime only. You may want to consider traveling through Packwood via Forest Service Rd. 52 either to the East side of the Park, or from the East side. This gives an opportunity for refueling, groceries and restaurants.

Essentials

This family owned grocery store is our local go-to for those groceries we don't buy in bulk at Costco. Meats are good and we appreciate the prices of the produce, even though some of it may be on the more "imperfect" side.

Quality butcher. The flat-iron and carne asada is pretty good along with thick-cut pork chops.

Did you forget something? As they say at Suver's, "If we don't have it, you don't need it." All jokes aside, if you forgot something that you really wish you had, try Suver's first. Prices are high and selection is limited.

Entertainment & Activities

A zoo that doesn't feel like a zoo. A good place to visit when the weather is a little overcast and cool, so the animals will be more visible and active.
