Mt. Rainier from Skyline Trail

One of the mind boggling things about the views from this trail is that even after driving thousands of feet up the mountain and hiking a trail with over 1,700 feet of elevation gain, one still finds that they are more than 7,000 feet from the top!

I believe the waterfall in this photo is coming off of the Wilson Glacier into the (mostly melted by September) Nisqually Glacier.

Elk Meadows Trail (Mt. Hood, Oregon)

I think this was maybe Clark or Newton Creek.

Whittier, Alaska

On the edge of the Prince William Sound, Whittier is one of Alaska’s many odd towns. Most Whittier residents live in the one building (Begich Towers Condominium) shown in the bottom of today’s photo. From another angle in town, it appeared that the waterfall was running directly into (or under I guess) this building.
