Photos Of The Week: Mt. Rainier National Park On Its Birthday

An Enumclaw photographer captured some incredible images of the state's tallest mountain.

ENUMCLAW, WA - Last Thursday was the 116th birthday of Mt. Rainier National Park (the mountain, of course, is much older - about 500,000 years old).

Enumclaw resident Pat Roberts recently snapped two stunning photos of the mountain - and that's why they are our photos of the week.

Those UFO-like clouds that appear over Mt. Rainier are called "lenticular clouds."
