Retarded and handicapped youngsters learned about Mount Rainier first-hand. And so did the adults who acted as guides on the trip. One young man found a secure spot inside a hollow stone. Others discovered wild flowers. And there was time for developing relationships. One boy had a seizure, but calm action by his partner solved all problems.
