A dry autumn weekend at Rainier

coscorrosa

Last weekend was rainy, wet, and foggy, this weekend was all clear skies and sunshine. The autumn colors were a little past peak around Chinook Pass but right at peak at Paradise. Here are some shots I took on Saturday morning while hoping my pager didn't go off (it didn't).

#1 - Tarn on the Naches Peak loop trail at sunrise:



#2 - Early morning in Paradise - the mountain and foliage was front lit by the low angled sun:



#3 - The Tatoosh range

all very impressive. The first feels so crisp, much like the temp/air was, I would guess.

So awesome. I really like the colors in 2 and 3.

Dry? That's no fun. We Arizonians prefer to see our PNW brothers damp and cold.

The color on that ground cover whatever it is, is amazing. :wow
