A hike into ice caves near Mt. Rainier turned into an incredible experience like no other when the ice became awash in brilliant colors. "I could not believe my eyes," said photographer Mathew Nichols. Nichols went up to Mt. Rainier to explore the caves, but he said he never imagined they could be so colorful. "We happened to be there at just the right time," he said. "The colors lasted for about 2 hours, then the vibrancy diminished as the day progressed. Even though it was very cold exploring these ice caves, I did not want it to end!"
