• Mount Rainier emerging through fog at sunrise, with alpine meadow plants (western pasqueflower) in the foreground and warm morning light illuminating the snow-covered volcano.

Cascadian Shroud

This photograph was made at sunrise during a summer morning on the slopes by Mount Rainier. Forecasts called for unstable conditions, and by the time we arrived well before dawn, the mountain was completely hidden behind dense, smothering fog. Visibility was minimal. Rainier might as well not have existed.

We moved slowly uphill as the world began to brighten, unsure whether patience would be rewarded. A fox passed quietly through the meadow, unconcerned. Then, without warning, a faint glow appeared in the fog. For a brief moment, the massive volcano emerged - fully lit by warm sunrise light - before vanishing again just as quickly. Before long, the fog settled and thinned enough to reveal this scene: delicate western pasqueflower in the foreground and Rainier rising clearly above, calm and luminous after its long concealment.
