Mt Rainier National Park

Mt Rainier is a favorite week-end destination for people from Seattle. No wonder, with its glaciers, its wildflowers, and of course its main feature Mt Rainier, this is a very beautiful park. Fortunately, we made reservations in advance for the campground, so this was not an issue. We explored the viewpoints along the road and hiked a couple trails at Paradise and Sunrise.
