This view of Mount Adams from Plummer Peak was taken in Mount Rainier National Park. I stood facing south to get this perspective of Mount Adams. Begin at the parking lot for Reflection Lakes (46.768528, -121.731510). Across the road on the opposite side of the lakes, you'll see the trail head for Pinnacle Peak Trail (46.768123, -121.731144). Follow the trail for about 1.3 miles and then you'll reach a saddle that has this view of Mount Adams.
