Sunrise At Sunrise Area in Mount Rainier National Park - Stockfoto

The beginning of sunrise shining over the top portion of the volcano in the Sunrise area of Mount Rainier National Park, Washington. A part of the mountain is wreathed in morning fog and the entire scene is richly shaded in deep purple and mauve light. The leading line of Sourdough Ridge Trail is to the right of the scene, leading into the distant trees. On the left side of the trail is a meadow of green grass, covered with purple lupine and pasqueflower wildflowers. The Sunrise ranger station and part of the parking lot can be seen in the distance in the left portion of the image.
