When we planned our trip to Washington my hope was that being a month early from peak tourist time would allow us to get to all the popular attractions without much crowds around. We planned our trip in late June and got hotel accommodations at a much cheaper rate. When we visited hurricane ridge, we got a feeling that maybe we messed up on our calculations a bit as the meadows didn’t have any wildflowers in them. The grass was visible but that about it, we had the whole place to ourselves though. I hoped that it would get better at Mt Rainier National Park but pretty much every spot we wanted to visit was under feets of ice.

But the surprising element was the number of waterfalls. Everywhere we looked there were cascading waterfall of all heights. I am not sure if this one is even a regular waterfall or just a spring snowmelt phenomenon. It was a very small cascade, but I liked how it fans the water over the flat rock. I used a 3 stop ND filter to get the silky flow on the water and used a polarizing filter to cut some glare.
