In the Olympic Mountains in Washington State there is a mountain called Mount Zion. It is not a high peak as mountains go. It sits on the western edge of the range and, like the rest of those mountains, is often covered in clouds. There is a trail to the top of this mountain, an easy walk for almost anyone. If the day is clear, Mount Zion becomes the great glory of God's creation. From the top of this peak one can see the entire sweep of Puget Sound, the rest of the Olympics, the Cascade Range to the east, and many of the mountains to the north, even into British Columbia.
