The Pacific Northwest

Hiking near the summit of Mount Baker

It’s a lousy place to get a tan. While it rarely actually rained, most days were like being trapped in a cloud. And it wasn’t until almost a week of camping that we spied a solitary star. So many shades of green though (this by the way is my working title for a 50 Shades spinoff involving Kermit the Frog). Also a lot of really big trees just vomiting moss. To paraphrase Corey, it’s all just so f’ing beautiful (although she doesn’t bother with the ‘). Lousy cell phone reception though. Not a lot of places to charge your phone either. Anyways, here are a few of our favorite pics from the last few days.

Our hike up to Pyramid Lake where floating logs house all types of life
At the Newhalen Visitor Center we spied two cubs and their mamma.
A lot of what Corey likes to call “indoor/outdoor” camping with us loving the picnic shelter at Silver Fir Campground and also our own tarp contraption at Newhalen
Sometimes our favorite coffee shops don’t have an inside. What Prospectors lacked in walls they made up for it in friendliness.
Random shots along the way including from a roadside chapel
Waiting on our ferry to take us to Nainamo. This is our view from The Lookout Coffee Shop.
