Mt. Rainier - 2006 |

|
Day 0 - Travel & Seattle Sights |
|
|
|
For this trip, I went out to Seattle 'early' - on Friday - for a Sunday gear check at AAI. I did this, not for sight seeing, but so that in case United Airlines lost my luggage (climbing equipment), they would still get it to me in time for my gear check. This also allowed me to get 'settled' from the travel and get 2 good nights sleep before heading to 'The Mountain' on Monday. |
|
|
|
Although I got to Seattle 2 days early, I didn't want to go sight seeing and get 'tired' legs from walking around. So, I pretty much stayed around the hotel, took two necessary trips to the REI store, and relaxed. |

Here are just a few pics from my travel day out to Seattle and some brief sights from / around my hotel. (Yes, I'm actually going back to Seattle sometime soon for a touristy / sightseeing visit) |
