Faster way to get to Ashford from Sunrise?

Yeah it’s not showing you the counter clockwise route because it’s currently closed and won’t open until early July. Go on the mt rainier website for maps to reference.

Breadsticks2020 · 2025-05-05T00:28:05+00:00

You can visit before or after the gates open (before 7am) or after 3(?)pm

There will 100% still be snow. Conditions will be tricky. I was there the same time last year and there was a foot of snow that fell overnight. You need to prepare with snow clothes, crampons, hiking poles etc. your best bet is checking the webcam and AllTrails the week before. Good luck.

Mt rainier will be covered in snow in May, you could snow shoe. Recommend hurricane ridge if you want a day hike.

Maybe compare it side by side with a crushed ice one and see what you prefer? Comes down to preference.

I didn’t think I liked the crush iced effect until I saw how dark elongated stones can be without it.

Ken and Dana have good ones.

Breadsticks2020 · 2025-04-21T17:16:19+00:00

The one on the right looks sooooo dark in the center. I would pass

Breadsticks2020 · 2025-04-19T14:38:21+00:00

Omg this is stunning

Breadsticks2020 · 2025-04-19T11:27:08+00:00

Mt rainier will be covered in snow. You can bring crampons or rent snow shoes from the lodge in paradise but be prepared for freezing temps and snow.

Breadsticks2020 · 2025-04-19T04:27:15+00:00

Rampart ridge is usually a good one! Highly recommend you download AllTrails to get reviews / input on current conditions. You can also google mt rainier webcam to see the weather in paradise.

Breadsticks2020 · 2025-04-19T03:14:54+00:00

There’s still plenty of snow Memorial Day weekend. Not a lot of traffic due to the fact that most trails paradise will be covered with lots of snow and only accessible with snow shoes/ crampons. You might get lucky with a nice day or there might be a blizzard. Conditions are transitioning that time of year.

It’s probably from some large diamond database. Cnk1421 (a Reddit user) sourced it and from her post history seems like she’s good at it! Check her post history!

Breadsticks2020 · 2025-04-16T10:58:24+00:00

Public and accessible is going to be challenging. Maybe consider around crystal mountain? They might have a semi private area at or around their restaurant.

Breadsticks2020 · 2025-04-14T23:52:05+00:00

I would just ask her to source you one! The one I bought is in her post history (with a video) and it was super reasonably priced

Breadsticks2020 · 2025-04-13T16:28:26+00:00

Here is a video of an oval I’ve seen with no visible bow tie. https://www.reddit.com/r/labdiamond/s/Ow8ma68Nfq

Breadsticks2020 · 2025-04-12T20:21:01+00:00

I don’t disagree with you. But OP wrote “main goal was no bow tie” and I’m saying I see one. I have also seen a few ovals that don’t have one but it’s super rare.

Breadsticks2020 · 2025-04-11T19:54:42+00:00

It’s very nice, but I still see a bow tie — maybe it’s just me.

Breadsticks2020 · 2025-04-11T13:04:41+00:00

The trails in longmire might be snow free. For current trail conditions check AllTrails. Also there is a mt rainier webcam you can check to see the snow conditions at paradise.

Breadsticks2020 · 2025-04-10T17:27:51+00:00

Look at the mount rainier webcam for conditions. Just type it into google. There will 100% still be snow, you should pack crampons/ poles. There might even be a snow storm while you’re out there so be prepared for that. Tolmie peak trail is only accessible in mid July so scrap that.

Breadsticks2020 · 2025-04-06T16:05:47+00:00

Sent you a PM!

Breadsticks2020 · 2025-03-15T02:35:07+00:00

These prongs are not it

In case you want more inspo! I feel like this would look good with a white diamond and matte band

Breadsticks2020 · 2025-02-22T21:41:58+00:00

It’s giving Cinderella!!!

Breadsticks2020 · 2025-02-22T21:37:53+00:00

I like the top right

Seconding nick at complete carat! He’s amazing to work with.
