#cascademountains — Public Fediverse posts

This was one of my favorite winter views from last season, captured on a bluebird day. I love how the snow blankets the mountain peak and creates a sharp contrast against the deep blue sky.

Location: Snoqualmie Pass, Washington – 2024

Golden alpine meadows at Chinook Pass glowing in fall color, framed by rugged cliffs and evergreens. Washington State at its best.

I hiked up to Franklin Falls today and the view was worth every step.

A decided to write an article about our tour around Washington State and the Cascade Loop illustrated with some of my photography. Turned into quite an article in the end. Hope you enjoy! #cascadeloop #cascademountains #AYearForArt #photography #nature #landscape #travel #travelphotography

Winter is coming.

In the Cascades the trees are mostly bare, with only patches and pops of color remaining. Snow is beginning to collect on the peaks and slowly advance down the slopes.

Late in the day today, I decided to drive out Highway 2. We'd been having on and off sun all day, and I thought maybe I'd catch a sunset in the mountains with some red clouds.

It didn't turn out that way, but I flew the drone and got this shot, which I'm reasonably happy with.

In other news: My store now accepts customers from, and ships to, Canada! Or it should, if I have everything configured right. If you're in Canada and run into issues, let me know.

Gear: DJI Mini 3 Pro

On Saturday, a friend reached out and asked "Planning on doing the Snow Lake trail on Sunday, would you like to join?"

It's... been a hot minute since I hiked regularly, and I'm not as fit as I was then, but this seemed like it might be do-able (just). Also, taking my camera up to a lake in the aptly named Alpine Lakes Wilderness? Natural beauty is a motivator for me, always. I like to say it's my eyes that are taking a hike, and the rest of me is just along for the ride. :P Exercise is thus a happy side effect.

So I said yes, and off we went on Sunday. It was, indeed, just doable for me where I am right now. I definitely feel, today, like I Did a Thing.

And it was worth it, even with the clouds. In fact, I like locations like this just as much in the clouds as I do in sun.  When the clouds are at the right height and you can see them interacting with the mountains. Ridges and trees shrouded in mist? Yes, please. That's something that always says "Pacific Northwest" to me, and is a reason I love living here.

Gear: Nikon Z7 II, Nikon Z 24-70mm f2.8 S
