Mt. Rainier, Part 2


This is the view as we got back to the bottom of the Skyline Trail. The meadows around the Paradise Inn are alpine with lots of small, brightly colored flowers in them. 


Finishing our hike. The trail is paved at the start and end of the trail.


Finished!!




Interior of the Paradise Inn. The windows on the right have spectactular views of the Cascades.





This is some of the original furniture in the lobby. All made from trees cut in the park just below the meadow. Most of the timber used in the inn's construction was cut close by. 






 Resting at the end of a great hike. Reading and enjoying the sun filtering through the trees back at camp.
