Ranger Station

This was Brian and I on top of the ranger station at Mt Fremont Lookout. We are about 7,200 feet in the thin thin air.

And so I went hiking...

Mt. Rainier Day Trip. We climbed and then we climbed some more.
After all was said and done we hiked about 10 miles with massive elevation gain. The air was thin but pure. The sun kissed our faces. The view was beyond breathtaking, making picture taking seem a trifle silly.
After zigzagging our way through Mt. Rainier National Park we ascended to Sunrise Lodge, parked the car, grabbed the day packs and off we went.
Here are some video because photos just don't do it justice.

Note to self: Next time bring poles. It makes trudging through the snow on the sides of mountains a lot easier.
