I was super excited to visit Mt Rainer, hearing that the wildflowers are in full bloom during late July and Early August, but was disappointed by the abundance of snow still covering every inch of the park.

After a grueling 15 hour drive from Atlanta to Niagara Falls, New York, we woke up for another long day walking around the park. I was anticipating a great view with vast amounts of water, and my wish came true. There are two sides of this huge valley, with the American falls located in New [...]
