Tall grass, yellow Balsamroot, and purple Lupine face toward a distant Mount Hood on the other side of the river gorge.
Lupine and Balsamroot on the Coyote Wall trail near Bingen, Washington with Mount Hood in the background. Great time of year to visit the Columbia Gorge. #pnw #wildflowers #landscapephotography
Passengers sitting and standing on one of the first westbound 2 Line trains ever leaving the South Bellevue station.
Crowds around the blooming cherry trees at the University of Washington.
A large crowd, many holding signs, listened to speeches at the start of the No Kings rally at the playfield next to Cal Anderson park in Seattle.
The No Kings march heads west along Pine Street.
A day of crowds. Took my family on the second or third ever westbound 2 Line train with the mayor of Seattle and other officials, then we walked around cherry blossoms at the UofW quad, then marched in the No Kings rally. #nokings #pnw #2line
I’m always surprised about the people here that are out of touch with or uninterested in nature. Just looking around anywhere outside there’s something amazing. How can you not at least appreciate it?
A partly cloudy sky reflects in a lake.
Nice to see some breaks in the clouds after a week of rain. Finally feels a little like spring. #pnw #wawx
A telephoto shot of distant red and brown cliffs with shadows from scattered clouds in the distance. In the foreground, a barren plain is broken by a deep crevasse with a glimpse of the banded canyon walls carved by the Colorado River.

A high contrast scene looking into a shadowy slot canyon under a bright sky. The canyon is approximately 10 feet tall carved through tan and reddish banded sloped rock. The floor of the canyon is sandy with footprints and broken rocks.

The white topped dome of Twin Brothers with an orange and red banded base peeks through canyon walls in bright sunshine and in front of a blue sky contrasting with the dark shadows on the walls in the foreground.
Finally able to edit and share my camera photos from the drive from Las Vegas to Phoenix last month. I'll focus on the landforms, landscapes, and cool geology. Here's a view of Twin Brothers peak from the Zion-Mount Carmel Highway in Zion National Park. #nps #landscapephotography #utah #desert

Photo taken near the West Tiger 1 summit looking northwest with the timber line in the foreground, West Tiger 2 summit with radio tower on the right, Puget Sound, Seattle, and Bellevue in the center, and the Olympic Mountains in the distance.
Traveled on some trails that were new to me on Tiger Mountain yesterday: Nook Trail to Section Line Trail up to West Tiger 3, then the connector over to Tiger 1, down the Preston Trail, then back via the TMT, Railroad Grade, and Tiger 3 trails. #pnw #hiking
Ugh, this is terrible. I couldn’t help the guy because of where they were in the road. But I shouted, honked, and gestured at an agent best I could. Sucks to replay it in my head and wish I could have done more.
Do you have a link to the video?
Your map is correct. It was ICE, they had a patch across their vests that said ICE POLICE.
ICE operations on 148th in Bellevue near 16th SE at about 7:45 this morning. #ICEOUT

A small black and green garter snake crosses the dry, rocky trail with sparse dead leaves.
Not many views with haze and clouds on Tiger Mountain yesterday, but there was some interesting wildlife to see. #pnw #hiking
It is brutally steep and it took me a while with many breaks, but with hiking poles I only needed to use my hands a couple of times so I count it as a hike.
Photo near the top of a mountain with rocky and treed slopes to the left and a large conifer to the right. Ice capped Mt. Rainier is in the far background with the City of North Bend at the bottom of the valley.
Did the Kamikaze trail up Mt. Teneriffe today. It’s called that because of 2,300 feet of gain in the last 9/10ths of a mile. Overall hiked 10 miles with just over 4k of gain. View of Rainier from near the top. #pnw #hiking
