This week brought fresh snow to Mount Rainier, including to subalpine areas like Paradise. Some fall foliage still lingers in the meadows, and low elevation forests are brightened by a mix of yellow-orange vine maples, devil’s club, vanilla leaf, and other plants whose leaves are turning. Remember conditions on the mountain can change quickly! When planning a visit, always check weather forecasts, bring the 10 essentials (including food, water, and warm clothing), and know how to navigate if you encounter snow-covered trails at higher elevations.

For those that have already visited, what was the highlight of fall for you this season?

This is Betsy sitting in what looks like a 787 Dreamliner, which was supposed to have big windows. She looks like she is going up in an airplane, and Mount Rainier is out the window. I started it just as a painting of the mountain. I was outside in the back yard, and I was going to just paint Mount Ranier.

I painted the mountain, and I had the painting in my studio for a few days. Then I put the island right down below it in the foreground. Then I realized that that was not enough, so I put Betsy in it, looking at the mountain. And then it was sort of static, and I painted the interior of the airplane window around her, between her and the mountain. It was so strange the way it evolved.
