Mount Rainier

I came to the conclusion that you can't take a trip to the Seattle area without shooting at least one photo of Mount Rainier. This was actually shot from the parking lot of an REI.

About two months ago I decided that I wanted to climb this peak. I've never been all that interested in this type of climbing, it always seemed like a lot of work for the pay off. But the more I read about Rainier the more I am interested in climbing it.

This again was captured with a Nikon D300 with a 16-85mm racked out to 85mm and handheld.
