It was a perfect day out. The morning was super cloudy but it all went away on the 2 hour drive to the trailhead. I took this with my Lumix G9 and my Leica 12mm - 60mm lens.

    What a gorgeous shot. Do you live out there or did something make you want to travel to the area?

      I live in the area and love to hike the hills around here.

      Helens is beautiful but I think Mt Adams is my favorite. There’s just something about that mountain that calls to me. Mt Hood is pretty cool too but it’s a bit too busy for me.

      I really dig the absolute isolation of the area between Mt Rainier, Mt St Helens, and Mt Adams.

      I’ll be sure to post some pictures from My Adams soon… When I can get to my favorite trails. There’s still a bit too much snow around a few of them.

      Last year at this point I built a snowman on one trail and went home before I got too lost out there.
