Rock Slide

Ok one final video clip from our epic day trip to Mt. Rainier. On parts of the trail there was still some ice packs. Because of this, we had to navigate around the ice since we were pole-less and there were sheer cliffs.
Actually, a ranger we met on the trail ask us if we could get his pole for him. He has two fake knees and can't move very well on unsteady ground. So fetch we did, it was the least we could do.

Below us a few thousand feet you could see all the lava flow from the base of Mt. Rainier. Also, there are beautiful blue-green lakes and we were wondering if it was due to the acidic water or just algae. Still need to find that out.
