We absolutely LOVED this hike. It was so much fun and beautiful to say the least.
The above photo was taken at our destination point. The accomplished hiker stands high on top of a rock looking way down to the bottom with the mountains and sun behind. I love this shot and put a sepia effect on it.

One of my favorite places to snowshoe is at Narada Falls in Mt Rainier National Park. Here are some photos from the last adventure.
This is overlooking Reflection Lakes which is covered by snow and of course the fir trees are sticking up in the distance. This hike was done on December 4th 2010 which was a cloudy, windy, and cold day.

This is a must do hike in Central Oregon in our opinion. The scenery is beautiful. The loop trail takes you up and over the top and down the other side and then winds around along the river.

This is a very beautiful and photograph-able lighthouse perched on a point on the Oregon Coast at Newport just off of Hwy 101. The landscape here is rugged and breath taking and the history is educational. Behind the door to this tall structure is a small museum with antiques and information. Then climbing the spiral stairs to the top is quite an accomplishment. Some say there are ghosts living here, but we did not encounter any on this visit. These pictures were taken in early October. The weather was sunny and wonderful, although windy of course.
