Rainier was completely blocked by fog when I first arrived at Reflection Lakes early this morning. As the sunrise progressed though the mists lifted rewarding my patience with a nice moody reflective shot of this massive mountain.
I'm off on another road trip to Mt. Rainier National Park. I'll be away for a few weeks. No cell service there so will be off the grid.
I planned last winter to arrive when the wildflowers are popping as I was later in the season last time. However, major wildfires are all around us. The entire WA state is under an unhealthy smoke level. Worst I've ever seen it. Wouldn't you know it...... a big trip planned and landscapes will be poor and hard breathing isn't recommended so will have to limit some of my planned hikes. Mother Nature is always the Boss though, she controls the conditions. Wildflowers, waterfalls and sunrise/sunsets will still be good enough. Hopefully the fires will be controlled and the air will clear soon. Regardless it will be wonderful to be here and enjoy what we can.
Thanks for taking a look! Always appreciated.
