On August 22 and 23 we made a trip to Mount Rainier National Park. The weather could have been a bit better, but we have a wonderful time as we usually do and found plenty to photograph. We left very early and were in the park by dawn, coming in the from west. We made a brief stop at Kautz Creek and another at Longmire, but my wife stayed in the car and slept at both stops. At the second stop near the Longmire visitor's center and at the beginning oif the Trail of the Shadows I found quite a few of these native orchids, Spiranthes romanzoffiana, the Hooded Ladies'-tresses, blooming.
