Glacier National Park is known as the Crown of the Continent. It’s a beautiful place, one we really enjoyed on our National Park to Park Highway tour, probably because it was our last stop.

Mount Rainier National Park was created in 1899 to protect the 14,000 foot peak and its surroundings. The forests, glaciers, wildflowers and rivers are beautiful, as this Mount Rainier photo journal will show. But with such a huge mountain in their midst, the weather can be unpredictable.
