Fall view of Mt. Baker from East Bank Baker lake Trail

I snapped this as the fog was rising and didn't notice the moon until I'd put the camera away. Man that mountain is beautiful. :-)

My partner took me on this beautiful hike for my birthday this year and this sight made me stop cold in my tracks. This. This reminded me (and continues to) how much I love the PNW.

Finish of day two

The Cascade Pass/Sahale Arm Trail is in North Cascades National Park and is one of the most beautiful day hikes anywhere. It is challenging and extraordinarily beautiful all the way to the end of Sahale Arm. Trekking here truly is, indeed, a most spiritual experience.

Best hike ever!

The falls are amazing, it would take a much better photographer than me to do it justice.

After conquering the steep climb to the lake, a nice break on Lunchbox Rock to rejuvenate for the decent back to the car!
