Description

A skier rips down the Paradise Glacier at Mount Rainier National Park in 1934. The glacier, which has receded significantly since this image was taken, offered a unique opportunity for skiers. Reflection Lakes and the Tatoosh Ranger are visible in the background. Paradise is still a popular destination for backcountry skiers looking to avoid the crowds (and comforts) of ski resorts.
