Paradise River


 Was headed home with his catch of the day in his mouth
  
Our first trip to Mount Rainier was on a rainy day in the Jeep but we were very excited so decided to bring the motorhome and spend a few days hiking and exploring around.



  



 

Not really the wildlife I was expecting to see

Hiked to Carter Falls


Mount Rainier with a cloud cap.

Hiked to a Trail Camp and this is where you would hide your food from the hungry bear


Narda Falls

Reflection Lakes


Mount Rainier without any clouds on our final day.
As an active Volcano, Mount Rainier stands as a reminder of the beauty and power of nature with the potential to erupt again.
