Wordless Wednesday- Mt. Rainier

Approaching Camp Schurman, Mt. Rainier, 9,460 ft.

Looking Up
(from the ranger station, Camp Schurman)

Looking down glacier, from Steamboat Prow, Camp Schurman

Facing Little Tahoma, from Camp Schurman

Ranger Station

Earth, in glass

Darkest and coldest hour is before dawn at 12,000 ft.
Journey, Illuminated.


Who said it's lonely on top? It's not, if the company's good.




The morning after Summit Day.

Beautiful. I've been up to only about 8,000 on that one, but now I feel as though I've seen a glimpse of what I might be able to do one day...

Always hoping!

Especially enjoyed the coldest hour and the sea of clouds.

Not being in the mountains is taking its toll- I need to go back. There is serenity, there is clarity. Of air and thought.
