Below are some Web-based calculators for sunrise/sunset, moonrise/moonset and sunrise/sunset azimuth.
For what it's worth, knowing your exact location in the NP isn't that critical as you can use the
calculation for Seattle, Washington to be sufficient close to make any minor adjustments in the field.
Otherwise, Paradise is 46.77 ° north 121.73 ° west and the crest of Mt. Rainier is 46.85 °
north and 121.76 ° west for exact calculations.
