Mount Rainier sunrise from Ingraham Flats

This is a timelapse taken on Friday, 02 September, 2011, from the Ingraham Flats on Mt. Rainier in Washington. Some friends and I attempted a summit of the mountain with International Mountain Guides, but we were unable to reach the top due to high winds.

When we returned to camp after our summit attempt, I set up my GoPro Hero camera to take pictures at five-second intervals. This video represents about two hours of footage of the sunrise over Little Tahoma taken while we rested and prepared for our descent back to Paradise. Toward the end of the video, you might be able to see that the composition of the shot changes. This is due to the sun melting the snow on which the camera was resting.
