This website represents the culmination of three-year's work to photograph every native plant species at Mount Rainier National Park. A total of 603 are presented, of the approximately 750 known to be there. I hope they serve to inform and inspire.

In the heart of the Pacific Northwest, a great volcano smolders beneath an icy cloak. Rising more than 14,000 feet above a lowland plain molded and swept by recent glaciers, on modern maps the mountain is named "Rainier" in honor of a man who never saw it. To the earliest inhabitants it was "Tahoma." To residents within its sphere of influence, it is simply "The Mountain."
