Packwood

Packwood has served as a mining settlement in Washington’s Cascade Range since the late 19th century. The community sits in the upper Cowlitz River valley, between Mount Rainier National Park and the extensive forests of the Gifford Pinchot National Forest. U.S. Route 12 and State Route 123 meet here, making Packwood a practical base for routes through White Pass country and toward Mount Rainier’s southeast side. Its best-known local tradition is the Packwood Flea Market, held on Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends and drawing vendors from across the region.
