Two Mountains
Aug 8th, 2012 by craig
This week I’ve pulled my phone/camera out twice for pictures of mountains. Though the photography isn’t that great, the mountains sure are.
This first one is of Mount Baker. It’s the view down the fairway of the fifth hole at Shuksan Golf, where Sam and I played just the other day. There were a couple of great views of the mountain from the course, this is the only one I took a picture of. And the golf was great too, as it always is with Sam!
This next one is of Rainier from the plane as we flew out this morning. This may have been the closest I’ve been to it. Every time I see this mountain I’m struck by how big it is. What we’re looking at in this picture is the part of the mountain that is ABOVE the cloud layer. The entire rest of the area I could see from the plane was covered with clouds.
Nice pictures. I love mountains. And these we are in Washington are stunning. Both Mount Baker and Mount Rainier are awesome, as are the more jagged Mount Stuart, Bonanza Peak and Dome Peak. I love being able to see Baker. Real mountains are one of the things I missed when we lived in Kennewick.
Wow. Those are some beautiful mountains. Washington is such a picturesque state.
