Rainier, Part II: A hike to the climber's base camp on Rainier with my dad, who was in town for the weekend. For a 4600 ft hike, it was surprisingly moderate (with just a daypack anyway). But extremely crowded -- the "Half-Dome" of Mount Rainier National Park. Great views of Mount Adams and St. Helens. (Photos and Panoramas)
