of majestic Mt. Rainier was from the Nisqually Vista Trail near the
Jackson Visitor Center.

The Skyline
Loop Trail, adorned with wildflowers, offered magnificent views of Mt. Rainier
- the tallest peak in the Pacific Northwest.

Wildflowers in the foreground with the Tatoosh Range in the background was a photographer's delight along the Skyline Loop

The Nisqually
Glacier Vista along the Skyline Loop Trail provided an up close view of just
1 of the 26 major glaciers on Mt.
Rainier.

The volcanic
peaks of Mt. Adams,
Mt. Hood,
and Mt. St. Helens could be seen in the distance
from left to right at Panorama Point.

Abundant
wildflowers, flowing creeks, and expansive views created a peaceful setting
as the Skyline Loop Trail wound its way down from Panorama Point.

The parks many
trails offered views of Mt. Rainier from every angle - this one was from the
Sourdough Ridge Trail near the Sunrise
