Mt. Renier

In class, we've been talking about Mt. Rainier a lot. I don't know much about it, but it fascinates me. To me, there's nothing more beautiful then nature. Since this isn't a city with mountains surrounding it, then to see one, even though a picture, is amazing. I used to love going up to Massanutten with my Dad to go skiing because I love the mountains. Even though those don't compare at all to Rainier. I can't even imagine being in the presence of a mountain like Rainier. Also, to know its history and how destructive it is, is quite nerve racking. I would love to go visit it one day. Not necessarily climb it, but just look at it. Maybe walk around it and take in its beauty. But hiking part of it would be interesting. Knowing that a glacier could start coming down the mountain at any moment is what makes the experience. The risk is the experience.
