Our road trip continues on in the Pacific Northwest with the national park named after this famous mountain. We stayed in a great campground, and enjoyed views of Mount Rainier from every angle.

A fast paced 3-day visit to this huge National Park with a wide variety of landscapes. We saw rain forests, waterfalls, rivers, lakes, wild beaches, and mountains.

We continued on to Northern Oregon, visiting Portland and the impressive falls on the Columbia Gorge Scenic Highway.

A disappointing visit to this National Park, which on that day was covered with smoke from a wildfire, blocking the view of its beautiful lake.

We enjoyed this relatively small National Park without the crazy crowds like the other ones in California. The highlight was the hike to the top of Lassen Peak.
