Day 2226: It’s spring in the PNW, but you’re in the wrong state if you think this is what spring looks like at high elevations. I always think it’s funny when people post photos on here from mid summer (or even autumn) and identify
Day 2225: I sometimes wonder if we’ve reached peak social herd mentality. If we’ve come to an equilibrium where the masses swarming to one social media hot spot are balanced by other folks avoiding that spot because of the crowds. And eve
Day 2224: The last month has been remarkably dry—in fact one of the driest mid-April to mid-May stretches on record. Many places in the PNW have seen less than a quarter of their normal rainfall for this time of year. Since the start of the yea
Day 2223: Another aurora shot from the night after last year’s incredible May 10th Aurora show. I went up high and to one of the darkest places in the state with the hope that the colors from the previous night would linger. Even before sunset
Day 2222: It’s shocking it’s been already a year since this magnificent aurora show. I’d captured the northern lights almost a dozen times, but every time they had been relatively faint. Color had been naked eye visible a number of
Day 2221: Tomorrow the Hoh rainforest section of Olympic National Park reopens. The road into the rainforest is the main access point for Mount Olympus and of course one of the premier examples of a temperate rainforest in the entire US. Nearly half
Day 2220: Every winter I plan to go backpacking and every winter I struggle to make it out between November and May. This year I snuck in a quick trip in January, but other than car camping trips, cold weather and short days once again dissuaded me f
Day 2219: Flower time continues on the east side! This year looks to be one of the most bountiful blooms in the last couple years with especially balsamroot draping the hillsides in yellow. I’m not exactly sure if it’s just favorable weat
Day 2218: Welcome to May, perhaps one of the most dynamic climatological months in the PNW! There are certainly stormier months and months with more extreme temperatures, but it’s hard to beat May for its whiplash from week to week but also yea
Day 2217: It’s wildflower season again on the east side of the Cascades! Stretching from the Methow in the north to the Columbia River Gorge in the south, there are hundreds of windswept, dry, and mostly treeless ridges where wildflowers pop up
Day 2216: Happy Earth day! Oh, you say Earth Day was yesterday? Well sure, but unless you’re an extraterrestrial, Earth day is every day and our planet deserves to be celebrated/recognized/thanked continuously! But as for the holiday, it’
Day 2215: I’ve been meaning to come down to the Gorge in the spring for a couple of years to catch the early blooms. I’d explored the lupine and balsamroot near Wenatchee and up in the Okanogan, but it has always been a bit challenging to
Day 2214: I love discovering astronomical quirks, especially related to sunrise/sunsets. Seattle’s first sunset after 8 pm a couple days ago inspired me to investigate. For the last few years both the descent into autumn darkness and the spring

Day 2207: For years visitation numbers for North Cascades National Park have been shockingly low so when 2024’s numbers were revealed last month, an ambitious plan was announced! Last year’s visits of barely 16,000 souls was a 60% drop fr

“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.”
