The Mountaineers

Why do you climb mountains?
It's one often answered by "if you have to ask the question, you might not understand the answer".
People who know it found the answer themselves.
One of the reasons we go outdoors and find adventure high in the mountains is to look for gifts that come about only in those places.
I was on the slope of mt. Rainier several times is witnessing majestic cold beauty of glacier and rocks.

Let me introduce myself

In the Park

Winter solitude

It was evening of the long skiing day. Snow was falling almost whole day. Only few skiers ventured to test ski trail that day. Nevertheless I enjoyed this solitude and magical scenery around. The highlight of the day was sunset when sun managed to get through a rare clearing in the sky. It has added a pink pastel accent to a white cold forest.
 

Windy

It was really windy on the ridge above Snow Lake, the favorite hike for people who live in Seattle. Being there many times it looks  different every time. Snow and wind work together to sculpt magical figurines out of trees. It's truly a Snow Kingdom.
