Description
Carpet of lupines in Mount Rainier National Park in western Washington, USA
.....
Mount Rainier National Park is a United States National Park located in southeast Pierce County and northeast Lewis County in Washington state. It was established on March 2, 1899 as the fifth national park in the United States. The park encompasses 236,381 acres including all of Mount Rainier, a 14,411-foot stratovolcano. The mountain rises abruptly from the surrounding land with elevations in the park ranging from 1,600 feet to over 14,000 feet. The highest point in the Cascade Range, around it are valleys, waterfalls, subalpine meadows, old-growth forest and more than 25 glaciers. The volcano is often shrouded in clouds that dump enormous amounts of rain and snow on the peak every year and hide it from the crowds that head to the park on weekends.
Mount Rainier is circled by the Wonderland Trail and is covered by several glaciers and snowfields totaling some 35 square miles. Carbon Glacier is the largest glacier by volume in the contiguous United States, while Emmons Glacier is the largest glacier by area. About 1.8 million people visit Mount Rainier National Park each year. Mount Rainier is a popular peak for mountaineering with some 10,000 attempts per year with approximately 50% making it to the summit.

This is still one of my favorite images...and, my incentive for visiting Mt. Rainier one day!! Fabulous work, Inge!!! I'm adding another f/v!!

Hey Inge, These look a lot like Blue Bonnets! What a beautiful scene!! Great capture!!
Inge Johnsson replied:
Hi Bonita, bluebonnets is a type of lupine that is endemic to Texas (Lupinus texensis). They are very similar to the lupines in Washington state like here at Mount Rainier. Thanks!

Gorgeous, how far did you climb to this field for this magnificent colorful capture? Lovely Indeed ! V/F
Inge Johnsson replied:
Thanks :-) I didn't hike up too far, about 5-6 miles on the east side. I want to go back and capture this area at sunrise also.

I look at this lovely photograph, Inge, and wonder how I've lived in Washington two years, without ever visiting Mount Rainier National Park. Love this blue carpet of lupines set before the blue hued moutain. Amazing raw beauty; great capture!
Inge Johnsson replied:
Thanks Lori. Yes, you really need to go up there in August and September; it is so wonderful :-)

Such a beautiful meadow. You did it again, Inge. You have a great eye for seeing and capturing the beauty of the mountain landscape. Gets my vote
Inge Johnsson replied:
Thanks again, Charles. I cannot think of anything more rewarding than hiking around in mountainous areas such as this one on Mt Rainier. It is so peaceful and inspirational.

Thank you again, Lynn, you are wonderful :-) This was such a great memorable morning on my favorite mountain. I will definitely join your new group also!

OMG Inge, it's breathtaking. I can't believe only one person commented on it. Faved, voted, promoted and I will do it again and again.
Inge Johnsson replied:
Thanks Teresa, you are so kind! I actually sold this one some time back to a company that makes jigsaw puzzles, so I hope I'll see it in a toy store one of these days ;-)
