Grove of the Patriarchs

The Grove of the Patriarchs is on the eastern side of Mount Rainier National Park and is a small area of old growth forest, Western Red Cedars, Western Hemlocks and Douglas Firs, some of them over 1000 years old, that is on a small island in the Ohanapecosh River and the area around it. This is actually part of the trail to the island, but shows one of these massive old trees, a Western Red Cedar. The day was at an end when we visited the area and the light was fading fast, so I did not get very many good pictures.
