Day Six: Mountain Landscapes

Specifically, this post looks at some photos taken of Mount Rainier and the surrounding mountain landscape.

For those unfamiliar, Mount Rainier is really one of Washington's spectacular sights, rising to over 14,400 feet of volcanic awesome with little comparable terrain around it (winning the coveted Most Topographically Prominent in the Contiguous United States award).  The mountain itself is covered in a series of 26 glaciers, and has many excellent hiking and photography opportunities.

Below, you can find a series of landscape photos I took on a trip last summer to the mountain.  There are plenty of nice flower and wildlife shots as well, but that will have to wait for a separate post.
