Me and the wife took an overnight trip here Labor Day weekend. We started at the Easy Pass trailhead and camped at Fisher Basin and did an out and back. Great mountain views! Beware of the trail coming down Easy Pass into Fisher Basin. It's steep and not maintained well but there are huckleberries here. It can be a challenge if you don't have poles. Also, we bumped into Jay Inslee and his wife on the trail on Sunday. We talked to him for a minute. I didn't recognize him until we walked away. Nice guy!

Lovely shots

I like the depth of field in the main shot where the two folks are sitting and looking out at the landscape. Which mountain is that and do you know which direction you were facing the camera?

Dog Mountain

South Cascades

Head to Dog Mountain for Columbia River Gorge views and an explosion of wildflowers. Eager to get in shape for summer? Head straight up the mountain on the northern side. Take the slow and steady eastern flank trail to stop and smell the flowers. (See if you can spot recent work by WTA trail crews.)
