Mount Rainier is not usually a winter trip. It’s common for over 60 feet of snow to fall on the mountain each winter. With that snow comes the threat of avalanches, hard to predict weather patterns, and, of course, just some really cold and uncomfortable days.

But not for a wolverine. They need that snowy, cold weather, as well as a place that’s not jam packed with humans.

And for the first time in over a century, they’re back.
