The God of Rivers is also Mt. Rainier? I'm confused.

But that is Mt. Rainier, right? It's a different angle than I'm used to but I'm pretty sure it is.

Well, of *course* Mt Rainier is Zhake, the wisest god of Them all. You can tell just by looking at Him!

The picture is taken near Snoqualmie Pass, so it's not too far off your normal angle.

That little rocky peak on the left is Little Tahoma. The triangle of rock in the middle of the glaciers splits Emmons Glacier and Winthrop Glacier, and has Inter Glacier below it. The huge rocky wall on the right is Willis Wall, at the head of the Carbon Glacier. I thought maybe the photo was taken from the Suntop area, but you took the photo from about 50 miles north of The Mountain.

On the trail to Lake Lillian, Lake Margaret, etc. And just think, I'd never get that view if it weren't for the clearcut. Ain't logging companies grand?
