snow covering pine trees at winter

My wife and I decided on a last second trip to the Pacific Northwest when we saw a deal on plane tickets. We managed to get into Mount Rainier after a huge snowfall and were awestruck at the omnipresent beauty. The majestic mountains hid behind a vale of fog and snow throughout the day, and not a sound broke the pristine silence, unless an overladen bough dropped a pile of snow to the earth. Best trip ever.
