Day 348 (bonus post): While working with the revegetation crew today, I kept thinking about my grandfather's photos from the Sunrise area of Mount Rainier National Park, specifically one taken in the general area where we were planting. Although my memory misplaced the loop road and its myriad cars to a somewhat higher terrace, you can identify the location by comparing the ridgelines in these two images. I believe my grandfather's photo shows the old Sunrise Campground as it was in 1932, shot from a higher vantage point. The upper photo was taken today just before we began planting.
