Comments
Could be rough going there. National park campgrounds are usually busy on weekends, and Labor Day and Memorial Day weekends are busier still. If you go, arrive very early and have a few alternatives in mind so your plans in Rainier aren't totally scotched. We have some options listed in this article:

Good luck!
We are planning on hitting Ohanapecosh Campground on 2ndSept for the Labor day weekend. Unfortunately, no reservations seem to be available. We are aiming to arrive at midday on the Friday and coming from Vancouver Canada. What are our chances of securing 1 or 2 6-person campsites on a first-come, first-serve basis? Or can you offer any further advice?
Thanks in advance,
Eoghan
