Our campsite at Lake James Camp along the Northern Loop Trail at Mt. Rainier National Park. We had the camp to ourselves this night. There was still a bit of snow by the bear pole in late July.
In the morning we went back to this trail junction sign. The snow was right at the top of the sign the evening before.

The ranger cabin for Lake James. This is a ways above the lake. The cabin got a new roof and luckily wasn't damaged from winter storms. Nearby trees were not so lucky and dozens were blown down in a tangled mess.
Van Horn Creek flows down a small waterfall into the meadow new the Lake James ranger cabin.
Dozens of trees near the Lake James Ranger cabin were blown down in a tangled mess. The meadow near the cabin was covered in tree trunks and branches.

Climbing up from Lake James to Yellowstone Cliffs the trail passes by this little mountain valley on the Northern Loop Trail. This is near Windy Gap.
Avalanche Lillies abound on the side trail to Natural Bridge in mid-July.

Natural Bridge with Lake Ethel in the background.
Natural Bridge is a 200 foot wide stone arch. The top is about five feet wide. Some people climb out onto it, a foolhardy act in the backcountry, in my opinion.
Mt. Rainier is the white mass in back of Sluiskin Mountain. A sloping field of avalanche lillies decorate the nearby hillside.
