By Mick Pier 📸 : Took a day trip to Mt. Rainier National Park today. Got this shot at a roadside pullout. Real short trail down to this point. The mountain was hidden behind clouds all day, but we still wasn't disappointed.

A moody pumpkin patch in northwest Washington. Photographed with a vintage Helios 44M lens to give it this look. Last autumn I was really into the super-wide crop, and I love how the wide cinematic low angle makes you feel like you are a mouse looking for a home to sleep out the winter. I hope you like it!

Who would be interested in a print of this? I may add this one to my shop.

Potential Fire Challenges in the PNW

The summers in the Pacific Northwest (PNW) that have been traditionally the best of times, from a pleasant weather standpoint, are rapidly shifting. I won't go so far as to say 'changing' however I am often accused for being overly optimistic. I do have a tendency for making things sound possibly a little better than they may actually be. All that aside, another summer in the PNW is shaping up to be dry and rife for wildfires on both sides of the Cascades. This could pose some challenges for PCT hikers as they work their way north.

Last year many hikers were prevented from getting to Canada due to fires between Harts Pass and the border. This spot is a mere few days from finishing kind of distance. Tragic, frustrating, sad, disappointing to name some descriptors for what hikers faced last August and September. The fires closed the PCT at Harts Pass forcing so many off the trail for the season. So close but yet so far.

A few days ago the Seattle Times published this article suggesting the upcoming few months look tough in terms of wildfire threats. In my optimistic way I remain hopeful the weather gods and people's common sense will shine brightly so we don't have a repeat of 2022 in northwest Washington. Below is the link to the Seattle Times article.
