Winter at Mt Rainier NP

Well I bumped in to my old friend at Mt Rainier NP a couple weeks ago, hes not scared of people so I assume he has been fed in the park by tourists, I think he's the same one I've seen a few times, each time he's a different color, above his transition to Red Fox is almost complete, even though there is still a huge amount of snow in the park, below is the black and silver phase in Jan of 2009.



Of course Mt Rainier was there in all her glory, this time she appeared to me in Black and White, a short snow shoe up the trail from the Paradise parking lot.

I hope to be blogging a bit more in the coming weeks, its been a pretty busy and rainy winter, I have not had much chance to get out and about, I was snow shoeing just the other side of the Hwy 2 Pass this last weekend and got some good light its amazing that it can be so cloudy here and I can drive just 2 hours and its a sunny winter wonderland.
