13th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
A view of Tolmie Peak and Eunice Lake

Blown away. That is how I felt when I saw this sight. I had never seen Mt. Rainier this close. It felt unreal. Not only was Mt. Rainier right there but also the beautiful Eunice Lake and thousands upon thousands of trees. As my friends and I enjoyed our lunch in a fire lookout on Tolmie Peak, I sat in awe and Mt. Rainier looked back at me in all of its majesty.
