Mt Rainier | Profile Map

Mt Rainier is one of the most iconic mountains in the world, dominating the horizon when not in cloud. Located near Seattle, Rainier is the tallest mountain in Washington and the most heavily glaciated peak in the lower 48. This profile map shows the southern slopes. Profile Maps show a familiar outline in a new perspective. These maps are made by creating a digital 3D model, using the same high resolution elevation data as our birds-eye view maps. This model can be rotated, allowing the map to be viewed in profile. Profile maps have a photographic quality, but all shading is from the elevation data. Rock, glacier, meadow are all shaded based solely by elevation. This gives a clear and unique perspective on terrain, and views that may never be possible to observe without this type of profile map. ____________________________ Map prints are archival grade.
