Description
That snow-covered ridgeline in the distance runs at about 7,000 feet above sea level, and the peaks to the left are Klawatti and Eldorado, which are right around 8,500 feet.
It took me a while to figure out what I was looking at once I got the pictures home. We have so many mountains like this around here, and if you're not a climber (and I'm not a climber) they all sort of run together as "the mountains."
This shot was taken from the side of the road, looking across somebody's beautiful pastureland about two hours from Seattle. Including several stops, one for lunch, our leisurely drive took us about five hours round trip.
Come vacation in Seattle! :D

Wonderful shot!
Oh, that's such a lovely view; that's what I love about this area, those striking white mountains at the edges of everything. Beautiful capture!
This is a gorgeous view! It's got a panoramic sweep to it, but at the same time, there's a calm, quietness to it that always seems to escape panoramas for some odd reason. At any rate, it's a fantastic shot, great details grab the eye all over this. The green pastureland and the snowy peaks are a great contrast to each other and the closer, darker mountains (foothills?) give a great sense of depth to the mountains beyond.
I have to talk to my boss about sacking me for 2 months so I can go and see your part of the world. Untill that day comes I can enjoy the picture of this nice place. Gorgeous green with a round small trees.
I'm coming soon!!! I love this view, it really gives a sense of what you see very single day.
Excellent contrast of the lush green foreground against the light blue of the mountains and sky!
Frow green meadows to snow capped mountains. Outstanding. Dana
all the colors of the seasons what a splendid place to see visit the animals see who else is there
Beautiful scene. My family and I lived at Fort Lewis for a year (72-73) and I never got a picture of Mt. Ranier. Everytime it showed up, I didn't have a camera (wasn't into carting one around then). Sigh :)
Great shot!!
Beautiful view...

Beautiful Green. Hope it stays forever. Aloha
This is a very beautiful capture and you got it all into this shot.
Timeless and lovely scene! I shall never get there, but rely on you to show me round!
Growing up in the White Mountains I only know the names of a handful. Sad to think we know so little about where we spent so much time living. Excellent view.
Fantastic view! :)
You are one very lucky lady to have this on your doorstep, I do appreciate what I have close to home but nothing in England compares to this. Don't get me wrong, we have some outstanding scenery but we have to go further afield to find snowcaped mountains. Superb panarama. Bravo!!!!!
