雷尼尔山国家公园入冬：通往Paradise的山门每晚关闭，所有车辆必须随车带防滑链
位于华盛顿州 Pierce 县与 Lewis 县交界的雷尼尔山国家公园，已进入冬季运行模式。国家公园管理局的冬季出行页面显示，通往 Paradise 方向的 Longmire 大门自10月29日起恢复每晚关闭，页面最近更新于11月2日；11月至4月间，想进山到 Paradise 一带的游客，要先查当天的大门开放时间。
典型安排是：大门上午9时开放，下午3时停止上行、4时停止下行，游客应计划在下午3时30分前离开 Paradise。但这只是天气和路况允许时的常规时间表，大门可能推迟开放、提前关闭，或全天不开放。公园提示，先查公园警报页面：前一天下午4时后更新次日状态，当日上午7时后再复查一次。
更硬的一条规则是防滑链。从11月1日到5月1日，所有进入公园的车辆都必须随车携带防滑链，包括四轮驱动车辆。园内路况告示分为三档：建议使用合格防滑胎、防滑链开车（四驱车辆除外）、全部车辆必须装链行驶；雪地袜（AutoSocks）可用于总重一万磅以下的乘用车。
人多时还有一层管制：Paradise 停车场满位后，护林员可能在 Longmire 实行一进一出的节流放行，游客要留意园内广播信息。冬季出行前，查警报、带链条、盯紧大门时间，三件事缺一不可。（来源：国家公园管理局）
Mount Rainier Enters Winter: Paradise Gate Closes Nightly and All Vehicles Must Carry Tire Chains
Mount Rainier National Park, in Pierce and Lewis counties, Washington, has switched to its winter operating pattern. The National Park Service's winter travel page, last updated November 2, 2026, says regular nightly closures of the gate at Longmire began on October 29 for the winter season, and from November through April, visitors heading to Paradise should check gate opening times for that day before setting out.
The typical schedule, conditions permitting, opens the gate at 9:00 a.m., closes it to uphill traffic at 3:00 p.m. and to downhill traffic at 4:00 p.m., with visitors advised to plan on leaving Paradise by 3:30 p.m. But the gate may open late, close early or remain closed all day depending on weather, avalanche danger and road conditions. The park advises checking its alerts after 4:00 p.m. the day before a trip and again after 7:00 a.m. on the day of travel.
One rule is absolute: from November 1 through May 1, all vehicles, including four-wheel and all-wheel drive vehicles, must carry tire chains while in the park. Posted traction requirements escalate through three levels, from approved traction tires advised, to chains required except for four-wheel drive, to chains required on all vehicles. AutoSocks are an approved alternative for passenger vehicles under 10,000 pounds.
Crowd management adds one more constraint: when parking at Paradise fills up, rangers may meter traffic at Longmire, admitting one car uphill for each car that comes down, and visitors should monitor in-park broadcasts. Before a winter trip, check the alerts, carry chains and watch the gate times. (Source: National Park Service)
