This is to introduce a new website covering area news:

“A new web service has arrived in the shadow of Mt Rainier The Mountain News.

Our mission is to report the news of those who live close to Mount Rainier in body or spirit. In terms of the physical, were talking about the communities of southern Pierce and eastern Thurston and Lewis counties, from Puyallup in the north to Yelm in the west to Eatonville and Morton in the south.

As for spirit, The Mountain News will illumine and champion those people who inspire us to greatness along with those neighbors we can count on when times get tough or celebrate with us righteously when we shine.

The Mountain News is an online news magazine that has in-depth features, columns and news stories pertaining to our area that can not be found anywhere else. Specifically, we cover stories of ex-urban and rural lifestyles such as self-reliant living, health, politics, crime, and issues of the soul.

As a fledgling organization we are endeavoring to build our professional staff and thus, our reach. Nevertheless, the Mountain News welcomes written and visual contributions from all of our readers and neighbors, along with freelancers, with remuneration given on a case-by-case basis.”
