Cascades




Continuing our trip to the great Northwest....   we departed Plymouth, WA, and made our way north west toward the little town of Glenoma, WA.  After some driving on interstates, we ended up on Hwy 12, and and as we entered the Cascades we came to a spectacular viewpoint.  It was our first glimpse of Mt. Rainier.  In the photo below, the mountain is cut off  by clouds, so you can't see it's rounded top.  We will be visiting Mt. Rainier National Park in a couple of days, and will have more information on this great mountain.



We reached Glenoma and set up camp in a campground alongside Riffe Lake.  We are going to relax here a day or so prior to visiting Mt. Rainier and Mt. Saint Helen National Parks.
