Mt. Rainier & Tall Trees Photo

This is a beautiful scenic photo of Mt. Rainier taken during the beginning of June. This photo was taken near Paradise in Mt. Rainier's National Forest. "The Mountain", as it's known by locals, draws your eyes like a magnet when it is visible instead of invisible behind thick clouds. On clear days, Mount Rainier dominates the Seattle - Tacoma skyline, towering over the metropolis in breathtaking beauty. Mount Rainier's highest elevation is 14,410 feet which is located at the summit, also called Columbia Crest. There are 5 glaciers on the mountain: Nisqually, Cowlitz, White, Carbon, and Puyallup.
