In the damp woods, I saw such a sight,
Tiny rosettes, of purple, pink and white.
Nuttall's Toothwort starts to rise,
Lifting blossoms to the skies.
Four petals, open like tiny wings,
Tells us the ground is awake;
it is Spring.

So green. So fresh. After a long winter.
A photo of Mount Hood in Oregon taken from the northwest of it in Washington State at Silver Star Mountain. The snow covered mountain takes up the middle center of the image. It is lit from the far right by low sunlight. Only some of it's very eastern flank is in complete shadow. But many ridges stand out, radiating down from the peak, in contrasting blue against the white snow covered flanks. Some of the dense forest covered lower slopes are visible toward it's base before the foreground. Above the mountain, the sky appears overcast with faint white diffuse banks of clouds. The foreground is a dip in a green forested ridgeline, higher at each left and right edge. The tall mature conifer forest is mainly along the ridgeline, with the lower slopes showing exposures of descending rocky cliff faces, and steep, low brush covered mountainside. All the foreground is in direct sunlight, except some of the cliffside left edges in shadow.
It's #Scape day!
Here's another from a Monday after work hike up Silver Star Mountain. It was a glorious clear day, but really windy and cold up there!
This is the iconic #MountHood from about 35 miles NW.

I just witnessed a Home Depot employee tip off Ice, who were driving in Loudoun Co Sheriff marked cars, about when they cd "catch" a specific individual in the parking lot later this evening.
2/2 The system penetrates deeper ice than anything before it and will next head to Greenland as part of the #CASCADES expedition to map eastern marginal glaciers.
A waterfall falling over rocks, some of which have moss on them. Forest flora can be seen on the sides and at the top of the image.

Yesterday's #StrollThrough the #Cascades section of #FranklinPark in #Columbus #Ohio. Taken with my #iPhone.
Monochrome image of a snow and tree covered mountain slope in the cascade range, partially occluded by vapor clouds after a winter storm, as the low winter sun begins to highlight ridgelines and reflective snowforms.
Clouds lifting after the storm, lower cascades.
These mid to low elevation snowforms will start shedding from steeper aspects almost immediately with continued exposure to the sun and rising temps.

We didn't chase the storm — we built the system. 🌨️🏔️
7 SNOTEL stations. Mt. Rainier. 8AM daily. Fully automated snowpack pipeline in Python + R.
This is what chasing looks like in GIS. 🌪️❄️
