“I woke up in the dark excitedly anticipating sunrise. As the sun rose above the horizon, then above a thick layer of clouds, we were treated to multiple displays of the mountain top being lit up, while the the valleys were still asleep.”

  2. Hi, is there any way you can tell you me where in the park this photo was taken (Sunrise Over Mt. Rainier by Stephen Luu). My friends and I have decided to make it a destination for at least a hike if not an overnight. Thanks so much!
