  • The Milky Way is just east of Mt Rainier at 11:30PM. The lights on Mt Rainier are a base camp and the climbers beginning to start their final ascent.  They have a 4,000 foot climb from base camp and try to reach the summit by day break so they can start down before the warm temperatures open crevasses. A meteor glows through the east side of the Milky Way.

  • Mt Rainier just up the trail toward Sourdough Ridge from Sunrise. First Burroughs Mountain is on the right. Burroughs Mountain and Sourdough Ridge are remenants of andesite lava flows between 420,000 and 500,000 years ago when Mt Rainier was just begining to grow.

  • A lenticular cloud forms over the top of Mt Rainier. A landslide came down part of Willis Wall while I was watching. I heard the crack and saw dust rise as the debrey crashed down to the glacier below.

  • By 2AM the Milky Way is right over the summit of Mt Rainier and looks as though it is coming out of the volcano. Three parties climb the north side of the volcano and at least three more are climbing the ridge along the east side.

  • Mt Rainier from 2nd Burroughs Mountain before the lenticular cloud formed. Emmons glacier flows down to the left and Wintrop Glacier flows down to the righ in front of Willis Wall. The small glacier in the middle is Inter Glacier and mountain climbers go up it to Steamboat Prow before they drop down to Camp Sherman for the night before their climb.

  • Rain and fog had settled into the Cascades as I walked to overlook the White River.  Fresh snow had fallen at higher altitudes and the yellow maples dotted the valley.  I stood for quite a while to enjoy the serene setting.  Little did I know that Mt Rainier towered over this scene through the distant fog.

  • Clouds enveloped Mt Rainier for two days as it snowed at higher elevations and rained through the valleys.  The clouds lifted for a while on the third morning and the sun lit the fresh snow and fall colors in the valley. A lenticular cloud hung tight over the summit.
