Longmire?

One time I took my wife over Chinook Pass on
Rainier's NE side through some low-lying
clouds. We never saw Rainier, but my wife
still remembers the awesome beauty,
hair-raising drop-offs and evergreen trees.

Re: Longmire?

Not quite, but somewhere between Longmire and Reflection Lakes. We had one good sunny day and two cloudy ones but I managed to get some good pictures even after my fall.

I tell people that after my trip to Washington that I will never think of evergreen trees in the same way again!

Beautiful!

I have always found that Mount Rainier is a particularly beautiful mountain...and you managed to capture a very special moment!

Re: Beautiful!

Rainier is absolutely magnetic; draws your eye from every angle. Even in clouds it is special!

Thanks!
