The "Mountain" view you brought as an Image of the Day is precious. I can tell neither the name of the mountain nor that of the lake, but its beauty affects me by soothing and calming. Thanks, Grrl!
That's definitely Mt. Rainier - that double peak is distinctive - and I believe the photo was taken from Mirror Lake, on the east side (near Sunrise).
