	What is Sourdough?
		From a scientific perspective, a sourdough starter is a natural leaven - a mixture of grains and liquid (usually flour and water) inhabited by so-called "wild" yeasts and bacteria which leaven and flavor bread dough.
		Sourdough Starter: A starter or culture of wild/natural yeast and lactobacilli in a medium of flour and liquid which is propagated through ongoing refreshments (or "feedings") for the purpose of leavening bread dough, is on-going and is continued on from one bake or activation to the next.
		With sourdough, the degree of sourness depends on many factors including the temperature, length of fermentation, type of grains, amount of water, and most importantly, the particular strains of yeast and lactobacilli that live in the starter.

		Because the standard route (the Sourdough Mountain Trail) gains 5100 feet in 5.2 miles, the mountain tends to be unpopular with the athletically-challenged.
		The Sourdough Mountain Trail tends to be climbed in the summer, as the switchbacks are easier to surmount.
		Sourdough Camp is 4.2 miles (6.8 km) from Diablo trailhead and Pierce Mountain Camp is 0.5 mile (0.8 km) NE of the lookout.

		Use sourdough if you possibly can, it is much better for you than baking powder, and it is a lot of fun.
		The young shoots of false hellebore which fill mountain meadows in the early summer, and are known locally as “skunks’ cabbage,” have a very edible look.
		There are several species of wild currants in the western mountains, all are reputedly edible, though I have been sickened or rather mildly poisoned by eating them, when they were infected with rust which was still invisible.

	Mount Rainier - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		One of the monarchs of the Cascade Range, it was originally known as Tahoma or Tacoma, from the Puyallup word tacobet, or "mother of waters." Due to its prominence on the southern horizon—its prominence is greater than that of K2—Seattle-area residents refer to it as The Mountain.
		Residents of the mountain's river valleys, they hunted and gathered berries in the forests and mountain meadows.

		During the first of these glaciations, ice completely buried the flanks of the volcano and the surrounding mountains, except for the very highest ridges and peaks.
		The glacial deposits were originally more widespread, but in most of the park they have been removed by erosion or covered by the deposits of younger glaciers.
		During the most recent major glaciation of the park, which lasted from roughly 25,000 to 10,000 years ago, ice again sheathed the slopes of the volcano, but glaciers in the nearby mountains were smaller than before.

		The Heart of the Sourdough There where the mighty mountains bare their fangs unto the moon, There where the sullen sun-dogs glare in the snow-bright, bitter noon, And the glacier-glutted streams sweep down at the clarion call of June.
		There where the livid tundras keep their tryst with the tranquil snows; There where the silences are spawned, and the light of hell-fire flows Into the bowl of the midnight sky, violet, amber and rose.
		And sometimes it leads to the mountain, to the light of the lone camp-fire, And you gnaw your belt in the anguish of hunger-goaded desire.

		Willis Wall, on the north flank of "The Mountain", is a cliff of this type in the process of formation while the north wall of the Sourdough Range is a series of such amphitheaters or cirques which have, long since, been freed of glacial ice.
		From the Sourdough the course of the canyon can be traced from the glacier which lies to the southwest, eastward toward the Sound, its depth lost in a maze of lower ridges and peaks.
		Because of its accessibility and the boldness in which the story has been inscribed in the rocks, the Sourdough Range is among the most easily read and most clearly illustrated chapters on the glaciation of this region.

		For example, good sourdough is not unique to San Francisco--even though the city is renowned for sourdough bread.
		And most important, sourdough is not activated by wild yeasts captured from the air.
		It naturally grows more acidic with time, and if your loaf is solid and doughy (as if it didn't rise), chances are the starter has become so acidic that, as George York explains, it has destroyed the loaf's ability to rise and hold its shape.
