Glacier on Mt. Ranier

This was as good as it got when we were around Mt. Ranier. We stayed around Mt. Ranier for approximately 3 days and never did get a clear shot of the mountain. The first 2 days we didn't even get a glipse of the mountain but saw some beautiful flowers and some other beautiful scenery. Finally, on the last day we drove to the other side of the park and I got these shots. It was down in the 40s when we took this walk. I still had on a short sleeve shirt and really didn't get cold until we crested the mountain from where these pictures were taken. When you hit the top there was about a 40 MPH wind and it was cold. As soon as you got away from the crest the wind was no longer a factor. Even though the weather was not cooperative we still had a good time.
