Mount Rainier

Here's a video of some of our explorations last week. It starts with a hike up Burroughs Mountain and concludes with thousands of
Erythronium montanum
waving in the breeze.

David, the sight of that carpet of erythronium is beyond exquisite. I thank you so much for sharing that.
I have used this as an 'excuse' to bring the attention of the SRGC Forumists back to to your website and videos, utilising a mention Tony W. had made of your trails previously.

Thank you for this most pleasureable walk
