Mt. Rainier. It's a mountain that soars nearly three miles high and is capped with 26 glaciers. It's a field of wildflowers, an incredible waterfall, a grouse that pops out of a bush right below your feet, the reflection of the mountain from a trail in the still water of a clear mountain lake. It's the adrenaline rush as you head down the ski slopes at high speed or you crest the summit of Mt. Rainier and take in the awesome view. It's a quiet moment in the center of an old growth forest or the silence of a snowy evening. It's being with family around a campfire and laughing until your sides hurt. It's the glow you feel just being outside in a wild, pristine environment.
