For a truly interesting experience, take off from Seattle, fly up fairly
high, and then try running into Mt. Rainier just below the snow (which
for some reason is black instead of white, incidentally).  Try to be
flying fairly level when you collide with the mountain.  It truly defies
simple description, especially if you are flying level enough that you can
see the sky above you when you run into the mountain.

For an even more interesting experience, try running into it from the
other side, near the base of the mountain.  It's even more amazing, but
harder to do.
