14 MT RAINIER NATIONAL PARK PICTURES

This Gallery is...    The Fruit of Washington's Volcanoes stems from the dusted soil of the volcanic past.  "Yakima Peaches" and "Washington Apples" abound .  "Mt Adams and the Hay Barn" gives testimony to abundant grasses in the area...the wild  "Bird"  loves the Cascade Mountains.  Eruptions of  "Mt. St. Helens" (next page) and others,  gave the area uniquely fertile soil and beautiful Washington landscape photographs.
          The snow on these very high mountains  nourishes the area, too.  "Mt. Rainier at Reflection Lake" has snow melting at it's side;  wildflowers drink as they "Experience Mt Rainier" thunderous "Snoqualamie" Falls and "Sunrise Creek" show the power of glacial snowmelt. 
          There is ethereal fruit,  too.  "Narada Falls"suggests contentment;  Narada, contentment in the Braham religion, is felt by a visitor from India who spots a nearby deer.  Young Longmire felt her contentment when she exclaimed "Paradise"at the first sight of Mt Rainier in the morning , 1889.  The Lodge has been there ever since.  At the Sunrise section of the park,  you can see "Mt.  Rainier at Twilight" or visit "Mt Rainier at Sunrise".  "Mt Adam's Reflections" are lovely too...just a few miles down the road...a drive dappled  with vine "Maples"   rustling in the fresh mountain breeze.
